mainlining shenanigans

Symbols are needed for tools to describe instruction addresses. Pages allocated for ftrace's purposes need symbols to be created for them. Add such symbols to be visible via /proc/kallsyms. Example on x86 with CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE=y # echo function > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer # cat /proc/kallsyms | grep '\[__builtin__ftrace\]' ffffffffc0238000 t ftrace_trampoline [__builtin__ftrace] Note: This patch adds "__builtin__ftrace" as a module name in /proc/kallsyms for symbols for pages allocated for ftrace's purposes, even though "__builtin__ftrace" is not a module.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
