[RFC PATCH] gcov: Add ARM eABI support

[gdavis]

From: George G. Davis <gdavis@xxxxxxxxxx>

Initially based on linux-2.6.30-gcov-arm-eabi.patch [1] and
linux-2.6.30-gcov-arm-hack.patch [2] with fixups to resolve
forward port conflicts.  Improved on [1] by making the
constructors section name a kernel config variable so the
correct section name is automatically selected based on the
build target.

[2] http://ltp.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/*checkout*/ltp/utils/analysis/gcov-kernel/linux-2.6.30-gcov-arm-hack.patch?revision=1.1
