The bug is in kernel/kallsyms.c instead.

So for a bug in kernel/kallsyms.c, where should a patch be sent to ?

You can use the 'get_maintainer.pl' script in the kernel tree to identify the
list and maintainers.

./scripts/get_maintainer.pl kernel/kallsyms.c


But in general you can send it to linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org.

Thanks,
Santosh

If you only do that, it will be ignored, use the output of
get_maintainer.pl on your patch to get the proper list of people and
mailing lists.
