Fixes the following build failure, which occurs on all architectures:

/tmp/cc6APNmN.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/cc6APNmN.s: Error: `loc1 at GLIBC_2.17' can't be versioned to common symbol 'loc1'
/tmp/cc6APNmN.s: Error: `loc2 at GLIBC_2.17' can't be versioned to common symbol 'loc2'
/tmp/cc6APNmN.s: Error: `locs at GLIBC_2.17' can't be versioned to common symbol 'locs'
../o-iterator.mk:9: recipe for target '/tmp/output/build/glibc-2.25/build/misc/regexp.os' failed

+Avoid .symver on common symbols [BZ #21666]
+
+The .symver directive on common symbol just creates a new common symbol,
+not an alias and the newer assembler with the bug fix for
+
+https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21661
+
+will issue an error.  Before the fix, we got
+
+$ readelf -sW libc.so | grep "loc[12s]"
+  5109: 00000000003a0608     8 OBJECT  LOCAL  DEFAULT   36 loc1

+in libc.so.  The versioned loc1, loc2 and locs have the wrong addresses.
