Masami,
this logic bubbles up to the register_fprobe_syms, because user
provides symbols as its argument. Can we still force this assumption
to the 'syms' array, like with the comment change below?
FYI the bpf side does not use register_fprobe_syms, it uses
register_fprobe_ips, because it always needs ips as search
base for cookie values
thanks,
