[1/2] kallsyms: unify seq and start_pos fields of struct sym_entry

Commit Message

Masahiro Yamada July 20, 2024, 4:21 p.m. UTC

The struct sym_entry uses the 'seq' and 'start_pos' fields to remember
the index in the symbol table. They serve the same purpose and are not
used simultaneously. Unify them.
