As we always iterate through the entire die_map when expanding type strings, recursively processing referenced types in type_expand_child() is not actually necessary. Furthermore, the type_string kABI rule added in commitc9083467f7("gendwarfksyms: Add a kABI rule to override type strings") can fail to override type strings for structures due to a missing kabi_get_type_string() check in this function. Fix the issue by dropping the unnecessary recursion and moving the override check to type_expand(). Note that symbol versions are otherwise unchanged with this patch.

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 reStructuredText 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.
