Thank you for the information, Baoquan and Xianting.

As you mentioned, the symbol is not currently used in userspace debugging
tools. If this symbol may be used in the future, export it at that time.

Can you help confirm that the KERNEL_LINK_ADDR is not used in your crash
patchset? I see it was used in VTOP(). Otherwise, you may need to improve
the crash patchset.

+#define VTOP(X) ({
            \
+       ulong _X = X;
            \
+       (THIS_KERNEL_VERSION >= LINUX(5,13,0) &&
             \
+               (_X) >= machdep->machspec->kernel_link_addr) ?
             \
+               (((unsigned
long)(_X)-(machdep->machspec->kernel_link_addr)) +          \
+                machdep->machspec->phys_base):
            \
+               (((unsigned long)(_X)-(machdep->kvbase)) +
             \
+                machdep->machspec->phys_base);
            \
+       })

Thanks.
