While attempting to debug slub freelist pointer corruption bugs
caused by a module, I discovered that the kmem call_site addresses are
not at all user friendly for modules unless you manage to save a copy
of kallsyms for the running kernel beforehand.
So convert kmem call_site addresses to user friendly symbols which is
especially helpful for module callers when you don't have a copy of
kallsyms for the running kernel.
