[PATCH] Tell kallsyms_lookup_name() to ignore type U entries

When one module exports a function symbol and another module uses that
symbol then kallsyms shows the symbol twice.  Once from the consumer with a
type of 'U' and once from the provider with a type of 't' or 'T'.  On most
architectures, both entries have the same address so it does not matter
which one is returned by kallsyms_lookup_name().  But on architectures with
function descriptors, the 'U' entry points to the descriptor, not to the
code body, which is not what we want.

IA64 # grep -w qla2x00_remove_one /proc/kallsyms
a000000208c25ef8 U qla2x00_remove_one   [qla2300]   <= descriptor
a000000208bf44c0 t qla2x00_remove_one   [qla2xxx]   <= function body

Tell kallsyms_lookup_name() to ignore type U entries in modules.
