[PATCH 1/2] scripts/bloat-o-meter: don't use readlines()

[Alexey Dobriyan]

readlines() conses whole list before doing anything which is slower
for big object files. Use per line iterator.

Speed up is ~2% on "allyesconfig" type of kernel.

	$ perf stat -r 16 taskset -c 15 ./scripts/bloat-o-meter ../vmlinux-000 ../obj/vmlinux >/dev/null
		...
Before:	7.247708646 seconds time elapsed                                          ( +-  0.28% )
After:	7.091202853 seconds time elapsed                                          ( +-  0.15% )
