Kallsyms symbols do not have a size, so the size becomes the distance to the next symbol. Consequently the recently added trampoline symbols end up with large sizes because the trampolines are some distance from one another and the main kernel map. However, symbols that end outside their map can disrupt the symbol tree because, after mapping, it can appear incorrectly that they overlap other symbols. Add logic to truncate symbol size to the end of the corresponding map.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
