[Xen-devel] [PATCH] xsplice: Prevent new symbols duplicating core symbols

[Ross Lagerwall <ross.lagerwall@xxxxxxxxxx>]

When loading patches, the code prevents loading a patch containing a new
symbol that duplicates a symbol from another loaded patch. However, the
check should also prevent loading a new symbol that duplicates a symbol
from the core hypervisor.
