The problem (as you will find out) is that "addr2line" doesn't take symbolic names.
So either addr2line needs to be improved (which really would be a good idea regardless), or your script needs to use "nm" or "gdb" or something to first translate the symbol+off into a hex number (which will not match the kernel-provided hex number when base randomization is in effect, but it will match the pre-randomized data in the vmlinux file, so then addr2line would work).
