[PATCH] linux/kernel.h: Avoid conflicting SYMBOL_PREFIX definition

[Michal Marek]

scripts/Makefile.lib already defines SYMBOL_PREFIX to the token _ if
CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is defined. Drop the string definition in
linux/kernel.h and change scripts/Makefile.lib to define SYMBOL_PREFIX
on all architectures.
