Subject: [PATCH] leaking_addresses: Provide mechanism to scan binary files

Introduce --kallsyms argument for scanning binary files for known symbol
addresses. This would have found the exposure in /sys/kernel/notes:

$ scripts/leaking_addresses.pl --kallsyms=<(sudo cat /proc/kallsyms)
/sys/kernel/notes: hypercall_page @ 156
/sys/kernel/notes: xen_hypercall_set_trap_table @ 156
/sys/kernel/notes: startup_xen @ 132
