Try putting *both* the System.map file (required for _stext) and
the Kerntypes file (required for debuginfo data) on the command
line.

If there is really no "_stext" symbol in the System.map file, then
you're screwed.  Although, I would have presumed that it could get
the _stext symbol from the stripped vmlinux file.  If you do
"nm -Bn vmlinux", does it show an _stext symbol?
