What about renaming the 'syms' argument to 'sorted_syms' so that user
is easily notice what is required?
Or renaming the function as kallsyms_lookup_sorted_names()?

Ooops, wait. Did you do this last version? I missed this point.
This changes the meanings of the kernel function.

More correctly "Lookup 'ftraced' addresses for array of sorted symbols", right?

I'm not sure, we can call it as a 'kallsyms' API, since this is using
kallsyms but doesn't return symbol address, but ftrace address.
I think this name misleads user to expect returning symbol address.

Hmm, sorry I changed my mind. I rather like to expose kallsyms_on_each_symbol()
and provide this API from fprobe or ftrace, because this returns ftrace address
and thus this is only used from fprobe.

Thank you,
