Fixed for next posting.

I've essentially added this as another patch before it moves into
recordmcount.c, gets renamed to get_mcount_sym_info(), etc. I did it
this way because it only becomes necessary to change the type before
moving the function (and eventually its callers) out of the wrapper.

I feel I should credit you as author or at least co-author of the added
patch since it's basically a "backported" version of the changes you
suggested. I reviewed the process in submitting-patches.rst and propose
the commit message:

objtool: mcount: Extend mcountsym size

Before we can move this function out of the wrapper and into
wordsize-independent code we need to explicitly size the
type returned from get_mcountsym() to preserve the symbol info.

Is that OK with you or do you have another preference?

Thank you for testing these out and the fixes!
