[PATCH] tracing/kprobes: Fix symbol counting logic by looking at modules as well

STALE1069d LANDED

From: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org>
Date: 2023-10-27 23:31:47
Also in: bpf, stable
Subsystem: the rest, tracing · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Steven Rostedt, Masami Hiramatsu

Landed in mainline as 926fe783c8a6 on 2023-10-28.

Recent changes to count number of matching symbols when creating
a kprobe event failed to take into account kernel modules. As such, it
breaks kprobes on kernel module symbols, by assuming there is no match.

Fix this my calling module_kallsyms_on_each_symbol() in addition to
kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol() to perform a proper counting.
