   states defined in DT (generic idle driver to be merged via a
   different tree)

Similar to ARM, AArch64 is generating $x and $d syms... which isn't
terribly helpful when looking at %pF output and the like. Filter those
out in kallsyms, modpost and when looking at module symbols.

Seems simplest since none of these check EM_ARM anyway, to just add it
to the strchr used, rather than trying to make things overly
complicated.

initcall_debug improves:
dmesg_before.txt: initcall $x+0x0/0x154 [sg] returned 0 after 26331 usecs
dmesg_after.txt: initcall init_sg+0x0/0x154 [sg] returned 0 after 15461 usecs

Avoid the variable length array (vla), just use PATH_MAX instead.
This not only makes this code clang friedly, it also leads to a
code size reduction:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  51765    2224   12416   66405   10365 scripts/mod/modpost.old

<title>modpost: reduce visibility of symbols and constify r/o arrays</title>

Internally used symbols of modpost don't need to be externally visible;
make them static. Also constify the string arrays so they resist in the
r/o section instead of being runtime writable.

Those changes lead to a small size reduction as can be seen below:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  51381    2640   12416   66437   10385 scripts/mod/modpost.old

For several years, the pattern "foo$" has effectively been treated as
equivalent to "foo" due to a bug in the (misnamed) helper
number_prefix(). This hasn't been observed to cause any problems, so
remove the broken $ functionality and change all foo$ patterns to foo.

The scripts/mod/modpost.c triggers the following warning:

scripts/mod/modpost.c: In function ‘remove_dot’:
scripts/mod/modpost.c:1710:10: warning: ignoring return value of ‘strtoul’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Wunused-result]

The remove_dot function that calls strtoul does not care about the
numeric value of the string that is parsed but only looks for the
end of the numeric sequence.  As such, it's equivalent to just skip
over all digits.
