[PATCH 5/5] symbol lookup: use new kernel and module dereference functions

[Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>]

Call appropriate function descriptor dereference ARCH callbacks:
- dereference_kernel_function_descriptor() if the pointer is a
  kernel symbol;

- dereference_module_function_descriptor() if the pointer is a
  module symbol.

This patch also removes dereference_function_descriptor() from
'%pF/%pf' vsprintf handler, because it has the same behavior with
'%pS/%ps' now.

-The ``F`` and ``f`` specifiers are for printing function pointers,
-for example, f->func, &gettimeofday. They have the same result as
-``S`` and ``s`` specifiers. But they do an extra conversion on
-ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 architectures where the function pointers
-are actually function descriptors.
-
 The ``S`` and ``s`` specifiers can be used for printing symbols
 from direct addresses, for example, __builtin_return_address(0),
 (void *)regs->ip. They result in the symbol name with (``S``) or
 without (``s``) offsets. If KALLSYMS are disabled then the symbol
 address is printed instead.
 
+Note, that the ``F`` and ``f`` specifiers are identical to ``S`` (``s``)
+and thus deprecated.
+
 The ``B`` specifier results in the symbol name with offsets and should be
 used when printing stack backtraces. The specifier takes into
 consideration the effect of compiler optimisations which may occur
