The kprobe probepoint.tc test started failing because of the added __pfx_
symbols that were added because of -fpatchable-function-entry=X,Y causing
unwinders to see them as part of the previous functions. But kprobes can
not be added on top of them. The selftest looks for tracefs_create_dir and
picks it and the previous and following functions to add at their address.
This caused it to include __pfx_tracefs_create_dir which is invalid to
attach a kprobe to and caused the test to fail.

Fixes: 9f2899fe36a62 ("objtool: Add option to generate prefix symbols")

This looks good to me.
