Subject: [RFC PATCH 8/8] kallsyms,modules: add module_address_line_lookup() to kallsyms_line_loc_lookup()

This patch connects the kallsyms line location lookups into also
asking for lines for locations information from kernel modules.

The kernel module subsystem can provide line location information
independently of the core kernel and is in no way dependent on the
core kernel being able to lookup line information when
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_LINE_LOCATIONS=y.
