Subject: [PATCH v2 3/4] perf symbol: By default only fix zero length symbols

For architectures without a specific end fixup (ie not arm64, powerpc,
s390) only fix up the end of zero length symbols. This reverts the
behavior introduced by:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220317135536.805-1-mpetlan@redhat.com/
where non-zero length symbols were expanded to the start of the current
symbol.
