Commit 393f203f5fd5 ("x86_64: kasan: add interceptors for
memset/memmove/memcpy functions") added .weak directives to
arch/x86/lib/mem*_64.S instead of changing the existing ENTRY macros to
WEAK. This can lead to the assembly snippet `.weak memcpy ... .globl
memcpy` which will produce a STB_WEAK memcpy with GNU as but STB_GLOBAL
memcpy with LLVM's integrated assembler before LLVM 12. LLVM 12 (since
https://reviews.llvm.org/D90108) will error on such an overridden symbol
binding.

Commit ef1e03152cb0 ("x86/asm: Make some functions local") changed ENTRY in
arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S to SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL, which was ineffective due to
the preceding .weak directive.

Use the appropriate SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK instead.

Fixes: 393f203f5fd5 ("x86_64: kasan: add interceptors for memset/memmove/memcpy functions")
Fixes: ef1e03152cb0 ("x86/asm: Make some functions local")
