[PATCH] kcov: disable tracing and branch profiling in kcov
From: Andrey Ryabinin
Date: Thu Apr 21 2016 - 06:32:52 EST
Tracing of __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() causes unbound recursion and crash,
because __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() is also called from tracer code.
For the same reason we need to disable profiling of 'if' branches.
