This patch addresses the bpftool issue "Wrong callq address displayed"[0].
The issue stemmed from an incorrect program counter (PC) value used during
disassembly with LLVM or libbfd.
For LLVM: The PC argument must represent the actual address in the kernel
to compute the correct relative address.
For libbfd: The relative address can be adjusted by adding func_ksym within
the custom info->print_address_func to yield the correct address.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
