------------------------------------------------------
Subject: update-documentation-kprobestxt update
From: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <ananth@xxxxxxxxxx>

Now that the proposed return_value() got changed to regs_return_value(),
the kprobes.txt needs to be updated so the example modules build
off-the-box.

Documentation/kprobes.txt updated to reflect:

o In-kernel symbol resolution
o CONFIG_KALLSYMS dependency
o Usage of JPROBE_ENTRY
o Addition of regs_return_value()

Also update the usage examples to use correct module interfaces.
