WRITE_KERN is supposed to overwrite some kernel text, namely
do_overwritten() function.

But at the time being it overwrites do_overwritten() function
descriptor, not function text.

Fix it by dereferencing the function descriptor to obtain
function text pointer.

And make do_overwritten() noinline so that it is really
do_overwritten() which is called by lkdtm_WRITE_KERN().

Why not #include <asm/sections.h> instead here?

But otherwise, yup, I expect there will be a bunch of things like this
to clean up in LKDTM. :| Sorry about that!
