[Tao Liu]

This patch set improves symbol_search/symbol_exists performance by introducing hash
table for kernel modules symbols.

v3 -> v4:

1) Removed unused variables in function symbol_search/symbol_exists.
2) Replaced 'assert' with syment_is_installed check function.
3) Add Reviewed-by sign for the first 3 patches.

Tao Liu (4):
  Improve the performance of symbol searching for kernel modules
  Get the absolute value of SYMNAME_HASH_INDEX
  Set name_hash_next field to be NULL for the newly installed elements
  Add check if an syment element is installed one more time
