Run these commands on the tree that needed CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS=y
(assumes Bourne shell)

for i in 1 2 3; do nm .tmp_kallsyms$i.o > .tmp_mapk$i; nm .tmp_vmlinux$i > .tmp_mapv$i; done
tar cjvf /var/tmp/kallsyms.tar.bz2 .tmp_kallsyms* .tmp_vmlinux* .tmp_map*

Send the tarball to me, not the list.
