[PATCH 1/1] kallsyms: add kallsyms_show_value definition in all cases

From: Maninder Singh
Date: Wed Apr 13 2022 - 01:53:35 EST


kallsyms_show_value return false if KALLSYMS is disabled,
but it's used in module.c also.
Thus when KALLSYMS is disabled, system will not print module
load address:

/ # insmod crash.ko
/ # lsmod
crash 12288 0 - Live 0x0000000000000000 (O)

After change (making definition generic)
============
/ # lsmod
crash 12288 0 - Live 0xffff800000ec0000 (O)
/ # cat /proc/modules
crash 12288 0 - Live 0xffff800000ec0000 (O)
/ #
