Module like minidump providing debugging support will need to get the symbol information from the core kernel e.g to get the linux_banner, kernel section addresses bss, data, ro etc. commit 0bd476e6c671 ("kallsyms: unexport kallsyms_lookup_name() and kallsyms_on_each_symbol()") unexports kallsyms_lookup_name due to lack of in-tree user of the symbol. Now, that minidump will one of its user, export it.
