kbuild: reuse mksysmap output for kallsyms
scripts/mksysmap internally runs ${NM} (dropping some symbols).
When CONFIG_KALLSYMS=y, mksysmap creates .tmp_System.map, but it is
almost the same as the output from the ${NM} invocation in kallsyms().
It is true scripts/mksysmap drops some symbols, but scripts/kallsyms.c
ignores more anyway.
Keep the mksysmap output as *.syms, and reuse it for kallsyms and
'cmp -s'. It saves one ${NM} invocation.
