This seems wrong to use current_cred(). show_value is used to not
"leak" pointer values to unprivileged user-space, right? In our case
BPF iterator is privileged, so there is no need to hide (or mangle,
didn't check) values.

If it happens that a privileged process loads iter/ksym program and
then passes prog FD to unprivileged one to read iterator output,
iter/ksym should still get correct symbol values.

I think the initial approach with show_value = true is the right one
-- give all the information as it is to BPF iterator.
