Matt Helsley 4fbcf07416 recordmcount: Clarify what cleanup() does
cleanup() mostly frees/unmaps the malloc'd/privately-mapped
copy of the ELF file recordmcount is working on, which is
set up in mmap_file(). It also deals with positioning within
the pseduo prive-mapping of the file and appending to the ELF
file.

Split into two steps:
	mmap_cleanup() for the mapping itself
	file_append_cleanup() for allocations storing the
		appended ELF data.

Also, move the global variable initializations out of the main,
per-object-file loop and nearer to the alloc/init (mmap_file())
and two cleanup functions so we can more clearly see how they're
related.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
