scripts/recordmcount.{c,pl}: support -ffunction-sections .text.* section names
When building with -ffunction-sections, the compiler will place each
function into its own ELF section, prefixed with ".text". For example,
a simple test module with functions test_module_do_work() and
test_module_wq_func():
% objdump --section-headers test_module.o | awk '/\.text/{print $2}'
.text
.text.test_module_do_work
.text.test_module_wq_func
.init.text
.exit.text
Adjust the recordmcount scripts to look for ".text" as a section name
prefix. This will ensure that those functions will be included in the
__mcount_loc relocations:
% objdump --reloc --section __mcount_loc test_module.o
OFFSET TYPE VALUE
0000000000000000 R_X86_64_64 .text.test_module_do_work
