Otherwise it will print false positve message as below. So add
a check when do the search.

    "Cannot get kernel page_offset_base symbol address"

It does not work in userspace code.

Maybe mute the error message or move it to kexec --debug is more
reasonable..

Could be it only works when make header and install. Otherwise it can't
be seen by user space. I built a rhel kernel package and test passed.

Anyway, since it doesn't work in all cases, I have made another way to
fix it, just take out the error message and put it where get_kernel_sym
is called.
