I'm not clear on why you need this obj->need_kallsyms? kallsyms_cb is
used for just this use case, it seems, it should be fine without this
extra temporary flag.

Ideally we should also switch to the iterator approach for kallsyms,
just like we did with elf symbols iterator (see elf_sym_iter in
elf.c), it would be a cleaner approach. Let me know if you are
interested in doing this as well (it's not mandatory for the changes
in this patch set, just to be clear).
