[PATCH v2] x86/lib: Do not use local symbols with SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL()

[Nadav Amit]

From: Nadav Amit <namit@xxxxxxxxxx>

When SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL() is used, the symbols are local but need to
be preserved in the object. However, using the ".L" label prefix does
not retain the symbol in the object.

It is beneficial to be able to map instruction pointers back to symbols,
for instance for profiling. Otherwise, there are code addresses that do
not map back to any symbol.  Consequently, the ".L" label prefix should
not be used when SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL() is used.

Few symbols, such as .Lbad_put_user_clac and currently have both the
SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL() invocation and the ".L" prefix.  This commit
removes the ".L" prefix from these symbols.

No functional change, other then emitting these symbols into the object,
is intended.
