x86: kallsyms: disable absolute percpu symbols on !SMP
scripts/kallsyms.c has a special --absolute-percpu command line option
which deals with the zero based per cpu offsets that are used when
building for SMP on x86_64.  This means that the option should only be
passed in that case, so add a Kconfig symbol with the correct predicate,
and use that instead.
