Fix spl_kmem_init_kallsyms_lookup() panic
Due to I/O buffering the helper may return successfully before the proc handler has a chance to execute. To catch this case wait up to 1 second to verify spl_kallsyms_lookup_name_fn was updated to a non SYMBOL_POISON value. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes zfsonlinux/zfs#699 Closes zfsonlinux/zfs#859
