The work for 'const struct bin_attribute' [1] was merged into linux-next
but did not include updates to the lx-symbols code. So it now fails with
the following error:
Python Exception <class 'gdb.error'>: There is no member named nsections.
Error occurred in Python: There is no member named nsections.

Restore its functionality by aligning it with those changes on
kernel/module/sysfs.c.
