I Will add co-developed-by` tag.
because this change was identified while we were working on kallsyms some time back.
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/YonTOL4zC4CytVrn@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/t/

this patch set is pending and we will start working on that again, so i thought better
to send bugfix first.

ok, I will share 2 separate patches.
