Hello,

Please consider this series for 6.6.y

This patch series backports two patches that implement a test to verify
that a symbol with KSYM_NAME_LEN of 512 can be read.

The first patch implements the test. This commit also includes a fix
for the test x86/insn_decoder_test. In the case a symbol exceeds the
symbol length limit, an error will happen:

    arch/x86/tools/insn_decoder_test: error: malformed line 1152000:
    tBb_+0xf2>

..which overflowed by 10 characters reading this line:

    ffffffff81458193:   74 3d                   je
ffffffff814581d2

The fix was proposed in [1] and initially mentioned at [2].

The second patch fixes a warning when building with clang because
there was a definition of unlikely from compiler.h in tools/include/linux,
which conflicted with the one in the instruction decoder selftest.
