Petr Mladek e367143b52 kallsyms: prevent module removal when printing module name and buildid
commit 3b07086444 upstream.

kallsyms_lookup_buildid() copies the symbol name into the given buffer so
that it can be safely read anytime later.  But it just copies pointers to
mod->name and mod->build_id which might get reused after the related
struct module gets removed.

The lifetime of struct module is synchronized using RCU.  Take the rcu
read lock for the entire __sprint_symbol().

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.
