[PATCH] kprobes: handle symbol resolution when <module:.symbol> is specified
kallsyms_lookup_name() allows for <module:symbol> style specification for
looking up symbol addresses. Handle the case where the user specifies
<module:.symbol> on powerpc, given that 64-bit powerpc uses function
descriptors.
