There seems to be a problem with the symbol handling code. Patch below. With this patch the command executes further, but the test fails because of other reasons:

At least on ARM, padding is inserted between rb_node and sym in struct symbol_name_rb_node, causing "((void *)sym) - sizeof(struct rb_node)" to point inside rb_node rather than to the symbol_name_rb_node. Fix this by converting the code to use container_of().
