Function __module_address() can quickly return the pointer of the module
to which an address belongs. We do not need to traverse the symbols of all
modules to check whether each address in addrs[] is the start address of
the corresponding symbol, because register_fprobe_ips() will do this check
later.
Assuming that there are m modules, each module has n symbols on average,
and the number of addresses 'addrs_cnt' is abbreviated as K. Then the time
complexity of the original method is O(K * log(K)) + O(m * n * log(K)),
and the time complexity of current method is O(K * (log(m) + M)), M <= m.
(m * n * log(K)) / (K * m) ==> n / log2(K). Even if n is 10 and K is 128,
the ratio is still greater than 1. Therefore, the new method will
generally have better performance.
