With CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y, the compiler may add .llvm.<hash> suffix to
function names to avoid duplication. APIs like kallsyms_lookup_name()
and kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol() tries to match these symbol names
without the .llvm.<hash> suffix, e.g., match "c_stop" with symbol
c_stop.llvm.17132674095431275852. This turned out to be problematic
for use cases that require exact match, for example, livepatch.
Fix this by making the APIs to match symbols exactly.
Also cleanup kallsyms_selftests accordingly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
