Some theoretically unchanged functions can have undesired changes if the
compiler decides to perform inlining in a different way (e.g. because of
newly added references). In such a case, it can be useful to discard
changes to functions that don't actually need modification.
Sadly, this currently doesn't work for functions missing the ftrace hook
(e.g. notrace code) as presence of the hook is checked before
identifying elements to ignore.
Look for functions/sections to ignore earlier.

The gcc-static-local-var-4.patch and test check that unmodified
functions that contain dynamic debugging printk's aren't incorrectly
included in the resulting livepatch .ko.
Note that on RHEL-7.7 ppc64le, the gcc-static-local-var-4.ko livepatch
module may include klp-relocation references to free_ioctx(), a function
that would match the above criteria. These klp-relocation symbols are
OK as they are only used for referencing said functions, they are not
copies that the check should FAIL on.
Modify gcc-static-local-var-4.test in a few ways:
- Use eu-readelf instead of readelf, which some versions have problems
handling klp-relocations.
- Set pipefail to catch any errors in the symbol table dump (missing
elfutils, etc.)
- Instead of a grep regex, use awk to string compare exact function
and module names. This avoids matching on .klp.sym prefixed
klp-relocation symbols.
Fixes#1069.

These patches cause the following error on ppc64le on both 7.7 and 7.6:
create-diff-object: ERROR: export.o: kpatch_no_sibling_calls_ppc64le: 3290: Found an unsupported sibling call at e_show()+0x100. Add __attribute__((optimize("-fno-optimize-sibling-calls"))) to e_show() definition.
Adding -fno-optimize-sibling-calls breaks build on x86_64, so limit it

The current code to find the twin of a local static variable allows two
variables of the same name to be wrongly matched with the other's twin.
While there isn't a magic formula to avoid this, make stricter
requirements for twining static local from the original object with
a symbol from the patched object. This reduces the risk of erroneous
matches.

If an error occurs while loading a module or one of the tests,
multiple.test will exit leaving the working modules loaded. This leaves
the system in an unwanted state and causes the test that previously pass
to fail (succeeding before being loaded for multiple.test's point of
view).
Cleanup the loaded modules before exiting due to errors.
Also take this opportunity to factorize the test for the different
distros.

The RHEL powerpc kernel is compiled with -O3, which triggers some
"interesting" new optimizations. One of them, which seems to be
relatively common, is the replacing of a function with two separate
"constprop" functions.
Previously we only ever saw a single constprop clone, so we just renamed
the patched version of the function to match the original version. Now
that we can have two such clones, that no longer makes sense.
Instead of renaming functions, just improve the correlation logic such
that they can be correlated despite having slightly different symbol
names. The first clone in the original object is correlated with the
first clone in the patched object; the second clone is correlated with
the second clone; and so on.
This assumes that the order of the symbols and sections doesn't change,
which seems to be a reasonable assumption based on past experience with
the compiler. Otherwise it will just unnecessarily mark the cloned
constprop functions as changed, which is annoying but harmless, and
noticeable by a human anyway.
Fixes#935.
