[PATCH] kallsyms: ignore local block labels generated by compiler

[Changbin Du]

The llvm compiler can generate lots of local block labels and they might
overlap with C defined symbols. So let's ignore such local labels.

Before this change, dumpstack shows a local symbol for epc:
[    0.040341][    T0] Hardware name: riscv-virtio,qemu (DT)
[    0.040376][    T0] epc : .LBB6_14+0x22/0x6a
[    0.040452][    T0]  ra : restore_all+0x12/0x6e

After this change, the C defined symbol is shown which is expected:
[    0.035795][    T0] Hardware name: riscv-virtio,qemu (DT)
[    0.036332][    T0] epc : trace_hardirqs_on+0x54/0x13c
[    0.036567][    T0]  ra : restore_all+0x12/0x6e
