You can get the address of the sys_call_table from the /proc/kallsyms and regarding the read-only section of the this symbol you can re-map the addresses by making use of vmap api in kernel. This will avoid the need for the compilation of the kernel. But I would not recommend you to do this. Their is LSM framework specifically available for this try to see if you can make use of that.
