objtool: Fix weak hole vs prefix symbol

Boris (and the robot) reported that objtool grew a new complaint about
unreachable instructions. Upon inspection it was immediately clear
the __weak zombie instructions struck again.

For the unweary, the linker will simply remove the symbol for
overriden __weak symbols but leave the instructions in place, creating
unreachable instructions -- and objtool likes to report these.

Commit 4adb236 ("objtool: Ignore extra-symbol code") was supposed
to have dealt with that, but the new commit 9f2899f ("objtool:
Add option to generate prefix symbols") subtly broke that logic by
created unvisited symbols.
