How about using the "from" (that you called "link") to follow the list.h
style and provide: 

	map__find_symbol_by_name_from(map, sym, filter, from);

And use it to implement map__find_symbol_by_name():

	map__find_symbol_by_name(map, sym, filter)
	{
		return map__find_symbol_by_name_from(map, sym, filter, NULL);
	}

Your loop would then become:

	link = NULL;

	while ((sym = map__find_symbol_by_name_from(map, name, NULL, link)) != NULL) {
		if (sym->binding == STB_GLOBAL || sym->binding == STB_LOCAL)
			found++;
		link = sym;
	}

And no map__find_symbol_by_name() callsites would have to be touched.
