[PATCH v4] kallsyms: strip LTO suffixes from static functions

[Nick Desaulniers]

Similar to:
commit 8b8e6b5d3b01 ("kallsyms: strip ThinLTO hashes from static
functions")

It's very common for compilers to modify the symbol name for static
functions as part of optimizing transformations. That makes hooking
static functions (that weren't inlined or DCE'd) with kprobes difficult.

LLVM has yet another name mangling scheme used by thin LTO.  Strip off
these suffixes so that we can continue to hook such static functions.

Changes v3 -> v4:
* Convert this function to use IS_ENABLED rather than provide multiple
  definitions based on preprocessor checks.
* Add Nathan's suggested-by.

Changes v2 -> v3:
* Un-nest preprocessor checks, as per Nathan.

Changes v1 -> v2:
* Both mangling schemes can occur for thinLTO + CFI, this new scheme can
  also occur for thinLTO without CFI. Split cleanup_symbol_name() into
  two function calls.
* Drop KE.LI's tested by tag.
* Do not carry Fangrui's Reviewed by tag.
* Drop the inline keyword; it is meaningless.
