[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 10/37] perf probe powerpc: Ignore SyS symbols irrespective of endianness

[Sasha Levin]

From: Sandipan Das <sandipan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit fa694160cca6dbba17c57dc7efec5f93feaf8795 ]

This makes sure that the SyS symbols are ignored for any powerpc system,
not just the big endian ones.
