Here's the requested output:

(gdb) l *check_preempt_wakeup+0x6e
0xffffffff802329ae is in check_preempt_wakeup (kernel/sched_fair.c:668).

664 /* Do the two (enqueued) entities belong to the same group ? */
665 static inline int
666 is_same_group(struct sched_entity *se, struct sched_entity *pse)

669 return 1;
