lkdtm: Really write into kernel text in WRITE_KERN
WRITE_KERN is supposed to overwrite some kernel text, namely
do_overwritten() function.
But at the time being it overwrites do_overwritten() function
descriptor, not function text.
Fix it by dereferencing the function descriptor to obtain
function text pointer. Export dereference_function_descriptor()
for when LKDTM is built as a module.
And make do_overwritten() noinline so that it is really
do_overwritten() which is called by lkdtm_WRITE_KERN().
