x86: Fix export for mcount and __fentry__
Commit 784d5699eddc5 ("x86: move exports to actual definitions") removed the EXPORT_SYMBOL(__fentry__) and EXPORT_SYMBOL(mcount) from x8664_ksyms_64.c, and added EXPORT_SYMBOL(function_hook) in mcount_64.S instead. The problem is that function_hook isn't a function at all, but a macro that is defined as either mcount or __fentry__ depending on the support from gcc. Originally, I thought this was a macro issue, like what __stringify() is used for. But the problem is a bit deeper. The Makefile.build has some magic that does post processing of files to create the CRC bindings. It does some searches for EXPORT_SYMBOL() and because it finds a macro name and not the actual functions, this causes function_hook not to be converted into mcount or __fentry__ and they are missed. Instead of adding more magic to Makefile.build, just add EXPORT_SYMBOL() for mcount and __fentry__ where the ifdef is used. Since this is assembly and not C, it doesn't require being set after the function is defined.
