4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ [ Upstream commit 0b9301fb632f7111a3293a30cc5b20f1b82ed08d ] If read_symbols() fails during second list traversal (the one dealing with ".cold" subfunctions) it frees the symbol, but never deletes it from the list/hash_table resulting in symbol being freed again in elf_close(). Fix it by just returning an error, leaving cleanup to elf_close().
