This isn't helpful... the question is whether it is kallsyms misbehaving 
and placing new symbols in the kernel image or if it is some other 
change in the kernel that is generating new symbols that end up in the 
symbol table.

My guess it is that it is the later, and in that case, from a kallsyms 
standpoint "it has always been like that".
