[PATCH v3] recordmcount: Correct st_shndx handling

[Mark-PK Tsai]

From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz at infradead.org>

One should only use st_shndx when >SHN_UNDEF and <SHN_LORESERVE. When
SHN_XINDEX, then use .symtab_shndx. Otherwise use 0.

This handles the case: st_shndx >= SHN_LORESERVE && st_shndx != SHN_XINDEX.
