From: Candle Sun <candle.sun@unisoc.com>
Though do_overwritten() follows do_nothing() in source code, the final memory address order is determined by compiler. We can't always assume address of do_overwritten() is bigger than do_nothing(). At least the Clang we are using places do_overwritten() before do_nothing() in the object. This causes the copy size in lkdtm_WRITE_KERN() is *really* big and WRITE_KERN test on ARM32 arch will fail.
Get absolute value of the address substraction for memcpy() size.
