[PATCH v2 2/2] powerpc: Enable kcov

[Daniel Axtens]

Hi Andrew,

> kcov provides kernel coverage data that's useful for fuzzing tools like
> syzkaller.
>
> Wire up kcov support on powerpc. Disable kcov instrumentation on the same
> files where we currently disable gcov and UBSan instrumentation.

I needed the following diff to get this booting on a T4240RDB:

The change to kernel/ is required to get the kernel to even begin to
boot, and the change to mm/ is required to successfully set up SMP. I'm
not sure preciesly why they cause issues.

I was then able to run kcovtrace and the results seem to make sense.

Perhaps in the future some further stuff should be trimmed down to make
the coverage results less noisy (restore_math is probably not telling us
anything interesting, for example), but certainly this is a great start.

With those changes,
