Oops, I wasn't aware of this part. Can we make this function disabled
by default and offer an option to users to enable it? Such as:

    bpf_object_adapt_sym(struct bpf_object *obj)

In my case, kernel function rename is common, and I have to
check all functions and do such adaptation before attaching
my kprobe programs, which makes me can't use auto-attach.

What's more, I haven't seen the arguments change so far, and
maybe it's not a common case?

(Please just ignore this reply if it doesn't work :/ )

Thanks!
