Indeed, that's weird.

This happened with xtensa-allmodconfig.
I compiled my own xtensa-allmodconfig kernel, and it happens there, too.

If I'm not mistaken, the hex address between parentheses should match
the "from" function, right?
After disassembly ("xtensa-linux-objdump -D vmlinux"), the addresses
didn't seem to match the function names at all.
So it may be an issue with the toolchain?
