[RFC -next] linux/linkage.h: fix symbol prefix handling

[James Hogan <james.hogan@imgtec.com>]

The commit "consolidate cond_syscall and SYSCALL_ALIAS declarations"
broke the build on blackfin and metag due to the following code:

  #ifndef SYMBOL_NAME
  #ifdef CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX
  #define SYMBOL_NAME(x) CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX ## x
  #else
  #define SYMBOL_NAME(x) x
  #endif
  #endif
  #define __SYMBOL_NAME(x) __stringify(SYMBOL_NAME(x))

__stringify literally stringifies CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX ##x, so you get
lines like this in the assembly output:

  .weak CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIXsys_quotactl
  .set
  CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIXsys_quotactl,CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIXsys_ni_syscall

This is fixed by defining SYMBOL_PREFIX from the command line for c
files in addition to assembly for architectures that set
CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX (scripts/Makefile.lib), and defining __SYMBOL_NAME
as:

  #define __SYMBOL_NAME(x) __stringify(SYMBOL_PREFIX) #x

We first have to ensure SYMBOL_PREFIX is defined (which avoids polluting
the command lines for architectures that don't use symbol prefixes).
Also the definition of SYMBOL_PREFIX in <linux/kernel.h> is removed as
it conflicts, isn't used anywhere, and is defined as a string so differs
from the assembly definition.

This is just one possible way of fixing it. It felt the cleanest out of
the ways I tried, but feel free to suggest something better!
