[PATCH v3 1/3] module/kallsyms: Rename is_mapping_symbol() to is_local_mapping_symbol()

Tiezhu Yang <[email protected]>
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.linux-modules,dev.linux.lists.loongarch,org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel
Message-ID <[email protected]>
The helper function is_mapping_symbol() historically checks for both
local labels prefixed with ".L" or "L0" and mapping symbols prefixed
with "$".

Rename it to is_local_mapping_symbol() to better reflect this actual
behavior and scope, preventing conceptual confusion.

No functional change.
