Shouldn't this be exported in the hypervisor headers then?

Jan objected to having this as part of the interface so now we pass this
as a parameter to the hypervisor. I may return Xen's symbol length and,
if it is larger than XEN_KSYM_NAME_LEN, do a WARN_ONCE() (in the next
spin of the patch).
The result of my objection should be you not hardcoding any number...

I guess I can query hypervisor's symbol size by passing to XENPF_get_symbol current symbol number as -1 (or some other token).
