By default sympos will be 0, and patching will only succeed if the symbol is unique. Specifying a positive value will ensure that occurrence of the symbol in kallsyms for the patched object will be used for patching if it is valid. Remove klp_verify_callback, klp_verify_args and klp_verify_vmlinux_symbol as they are no longer used. >From the klp_reloc structure remove val, as it can be refactored as a local variable in klp_write_object_relocations.
