--just-symbols may not do what you wanted:

'--just-symbols=FILENAME'
     Read symbol names and their addresses from FILENAME, but do not
     relocate it or include it in the output.  This allows your output
     file to refer symbolically to absolute locations of memory defined
     in other programs.  You may use this option more than once.

You can use

for s in $(nm -u iscsi.o | awk '{ print $2 }'); do echo "-Wl,-u,$s"; done

to generate all -Wl,u,xxx.
