[PATCH v4][makedumpfile 5/7] Implement kernel module's btf resolving

Tue Mar 17 08:07:41 PDT 2026
Same as the previous patch, with kernel's kallsyms and btf ready,
we can locate and iterate all kernel modules' btf data. So kernel
modules' types specified within .init_ksyms section will be resolved.
