[PATCH v5] 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.

Combine handling of the various schemes by truncating after the first
'.'.  Strip off these suffixes so that we can continue to hook such
static functions.  Clang releases prior to clang-13 would use '$'
instead of '.'

Changes v4 -> v5:
* Absorb Padmanabha Srinivasaiah's patch from
  https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210814124224.8551-1-treasure4paddy@xxxxxxxxx/.
* Add Padmanabha's Suggested-by tag.
* Rewrite the patch to truncate after first '.', as per Sami's comment
  from
  https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CABCJKue5Ay6_+8sibzh5wRh3gPzV1g72gJ9m2ot4E1ezj8bpHA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/.
* Add Sami's Suggested-by tag.
* Verify that the '$' delimiter only appears for
  thin LTO + CFI + clang <= 12, use __clang_minor__ to check.
* Update comments as per Nathan + Fangrui, add their Suggested-by tags.
* While Nathan + Fangrui did review v4, v5 is too different IMO to carry
  those tags forward.

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.
