kbuild: prefer ${NM} in check-function-names.sh
The check-function-names.sh scripts invokes 'nm' directly and this can be problematic during cross-compilation when the toolchain is different from the system's default (e.g. LLVM=1). scripts/check-function-names.sh: nm: not found Let's prefer the ${NM} variable which is already set by kbuild. However, still fallback to plain 'nm' to ensure the script is still usable when called directly.
