commit a9ece53c4089ef23d4002d34c4c7148d94622a40 upstream.
Commit b478b782e1 "kallsyms, tracing: output
more proper symbol name" introduces a "bugfix" that introduces a segfault
in kallsyms in my configurations.
The cause is the introduction of prefix_underscores_count() which attempts
to count underscores, even in symbols that do not have them. As a result,
it just uselessly runs past the end of the buffer until it crashes:
CC init/version.o
LD init/built-in.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux1
KSYM .tmp_kallsyms1.S
/bin/sh: line 1: 16934 Done sh-linux-gnu-nm -n .tmp_vmlinux1
16935 Segmentation fault | scripts/kallsyms > .tmp_kallsyms1.S
make: *** [.tmp_kallsyms1.S] Error 139
This simplifies the logic and just does a straightforward count.
