The addition of this line seems to have introduced errors on the
'vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms' perf test (perf test -v 1) which fails
on aarch64 for all __kvm_nvhe_ prefixed symbols, like

ERR : <addr> : __kvm_nvhe___invalid not on kallsyms
ERR : <addr> : __kvm_nvhe___do_hyp_init not on kallsyms
ERR : <addr> : __kvm_nvhe___kvm_handle_stub_hvc not on kallsyms
ERR : <addr> : __kvm_nvhe_reset not on kallsyms
../..

I understand we willingly hided those symbols from /proc/kallsyms. Do
you confirm the right fix is to upgrade the perf test suite accordingly?

Thanks

Eric
