arm64: use local label prefixes for __reg_num symbols
The __reg_num_xNN symbols that are used to implement the msr_s and mrs_s macros are recorded in the ELF metadata of each object file. This does not affect the size of the final binary, but it does clutter the output of tools like readelf, i.e., $ readelf -a vmlinux |grep -c __reg_num_x 50976 So let's use symbols with the .L prefix, these are strictly local, and don't end up in the object files. $ readelf -a vmlinux |grep -c __reg_num_x 0 Acked-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
