hum, this callback is called for each kallsyms symbol and there
are duplicates in /proc/kallsyms.. so even if we have just single
copy of such symbol in args->syms, bsearch will find this single
symbol for all the duplicates in /proc/kallsyms and we will endup
in here.. and it's still fine, we should continue
