[PATCH 5/5] sched: pause KCOV in wake_up_new_task()

[Karl Mehltretter]

wake_up_new_task() is uninstrumented, but CPU selection and enqueue call
instrumented helpers. During a KCOV-enabled fork, they can record
scheduler, hrtimer and clockevent coverage into the parent.

The paths depend on runqueue and CPU state, so coverage varies between
identical forks. Pause KCOV for the whole function, extending the
scheduler exclusion to new-task wakeups.
