genksyms: fix memory leak when the same symbol is read from *.symref file

[ Upstream commit be2fa44b5180a1f021efb40c55fdf63c249c3209 ]

When a symbol that is already registered is read again from *.symref
file, __add_symbol() removes the previous one from the hash table without
freeing it.

[Test Case]

  $ cat foo.c
  #include <linux/export.h>
  void foo(void);
  void foo(void) {}
  EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo);

  $ cat foo.symref
  foo void foo ( void )
  foo void foo ( void )

When a symbol is removed from the hash table, it must be freed along
with its ->name and ->defn members. However, sym->name cannot be freed
because it is sometimes shared with node->string, but not always. If
sym->name and node->string share the same memory, free(sym->name) could
lead to a double-free bug.

To resolve this issue, always assign a strdup'ed string to sym->name.
