[PATCH 15/20] Kbuild, lto: Fix single pass kallsyms for LTO

[Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org>]

From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

gcc-nm on slim LTO objects does not output static functions or variables.

This causes the first pass estimation of the kallsyms table
to be off too much. Add a hack using the LTO function sections
to retrieve all functions instead. I wrote that hack in perl,
as it exceeded my awk-fu (this adds a build dependency on perl,
but only if LTO is active). The hack also doesn't support
variables, but we handle that by disable KALLSYMS_ALL with LTO.
The hack is also somewhat depending on the internal LTO
object format.

Hopefully at some future point gcc-nm will be fixed and this
won't be necessary anymore.

One issue is that LTO can generate new symbols in the
final link, for example when cloning functions. These clones
are just copies of existing names with a postfix (which
we remove), so they compress well in the kallsyms compression.

With that we can get away by just adding a 5% safety factor
to the first pass kallsyms estimation, and hope all clones
fit into that.  If some obscure build has more clones than that
the PAD_RATIO value in kallsyms.c can be lowered to increase it.
