objtool: Add check_kcov_mode() to the uaccess safelist

check_kcov_mode() is called by write_comp_data() and
__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc(), which are already on the uaccess safe list.
It's notrace and doesn't call out to anything else, so add it to the
list too.

This fixes the following warnings:

kernel/kcov.o: warning: objtool: __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc()+0x15: call to check_kcov_mode() with UACCESS enabled
kernel/kcov.o: warning: objtool: write_comp_data()+0x1b: call to check_kcov_mode() with UACCESS enabled
