I guess it's a question of what's clearer. I like kimage_vaddr +
TEXT_OFFSET because it clearly states we are checking from the
start of the kernel image vs. _text only shows the start of the
text region. Yes, it's technically the same but a little less
obvious. I suppose that could be solved with some more elaboration
in the comment.

Thanks,
Laura
