Never mind, in testing this I had marked the weak function as notrace,
which was the reason I couldn't add it to the set_ftrace_notrace.

After removing the notrace, kallsyms_lookup() doesn't make a difference. It
appears that kallsyms will include overridden weak functions into the size
of the function before it. I tried:

	ret = kallsyms_lookup(rec->ip, &size, &offset, &modname, str);
	if (!ret || offset > size) {
		seq_printf(m, "no function at %lx", rec->ip);
	} else {
		seq_printf(m, "%s", str);
		if (modname)
			seq_printf(m, " [%s]", modname);
	}

And it made no difference.

Yes, this does appear to be a issue with kallsyms in general.
