Adding ftrace_lookup_symbols function that resolves array of symbols
with single pass over kallsyms.
The user provides array of string pointers with count and pointer to
allocated array for resolved values.
int ftrace_lookup_symbols(const char **sorted_syms, size_t cnt,
unsigned long *addrs)
It iterates all kallsyms symbols and tries to loop up each in provided
symbols array with bsearch. The symbols array needs to be sorted by
name for this reason.
We also check each symbol to pass ftrace_location, because this API
will be used for fprobe symbols resolving.

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 Restructured Text 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.
