Usually we prefer to let compiler put the module initialized function to
section ".init.text". Thus this text in memory will be freed in future.

Once we add the "__init" preceding function name, we can use following
command to find it in specfied section.

  $ objdump -t -j .init.text built-in.o

  built-in.o:     file format elf64-x86-64

  SYMBOL TABLE:
  0000000000000000 l    d  .init.text   0000000000000000 .init.text
  0000000000000000 l     F .init.text   000000000000004e klp_init
