LGTM. But see another suggestion below. In either case:

if we just...

if (kmod)
    func->addr += func->sh_addr;

... here, that would make is_ftrace_func() free of kmod knowledge. If
there are other places that rely on kmod vs non-kmod address of a
function, that would be simplified as well, right?
