lld is now able to build ARMv4 and ARMv4T kernels, which means it can generate
thunks for those that can interfere with kallsyms table generation since
they do not get ignore like the corresponding ARMv5+ ones are:
Inconsistent kallsyms data
Try "make KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS=1" as a workaround
Add the missing symbols to the list of ignored symbol prefixes.
Fixes: 5eb6e280432d ("ARM: 9289/1: Allow pre-ARMv5 builds with ld.lld 16.0.0 and newer")
Fixes: efe6e3068067 ("kallsyms: fix nonconverging kallsyms table with lld")

If this is a recurring problem,
maybe is it better to use a regular expression?
Remove these lines:
# arm64 lld
/ __AArch64ADRPThunk_/d
# arm lld
/ __ARMV5PILongThunk_/d
/ __ARMV7PILongThunk_/d
/ __ThumbV7PILongThunk_/d
# mips lld
/ __LA25Thunk_/d
/ __microLA25Thunk_/d
Add this:
# lld
/ __[^[:space:]]*Thunk_/d
This pattern is only used in tooling,
but never in the kernel space.
$ git grep '__[^[:space:]]*Thunk_'
scripts/mksysmap:/ __AArch64ADRPThunk_/d
scripts/mksysmap:/ __ARMV5PILongThunk_/d
scripts/mksysmap:/ __ARMV7PILongThunk_/d
scripts/mksysmap:/ __ThumbV7PILongThunk_/d
scripts/mksysmap:/ __LA25Thunk_/d
scripts/mksysmap:/ __microLA25Thunk_/d

Right, makes sense. There is always a risk of removing
intential kernel symbols and this is slightly higher
with the regex but still not that bad.
I'll give this a spin and send a v2 tomorrow then.

Maybe this is a little more simpler:
/ __[[:alnum:]]*Thunk_/d
