Kprobes doesn't scribble the kprobe.symbol_name field. Its only set by
the module when registering the probe. Modules that exercise good
hygiene using the "const" qualifier will see warnings...
warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type
Make struct kprobe.symbol_name const char *
