[PATCH -tip] kcov: Make runtime functions noinstr-compatible

[Marco Elver]

The KCOV runtime is very minimal, only updating a field in 'current',
and none of __sanitizer_cov-functions generates reports nor calls any
other external functions.

Therefore we can make the KCOV runtime noinstr-compatible by:

  1. always-inlining internal functions and marking
     __sanitizer_cov-functions noinstr. The function write_comp_data() is
     now guaranteed to be inlined into __sanitize_cov_trace_*cmp()
     functions, which saves a call in the fast-path and reduces stack
     pressure due to the first argument being a constant.

  2. For Clang, correctly pass -fno-stack-protector via a separate
     cc-option, as -fno-conserve-stack does not exist on Clang.

The major benefit compared to adding another attribute to 'noinstr' to
not collect coverage information, is that we retain coverage visibility
in noinstr functions. We also currently lack such an attribute in both
GCC and Clang.

Note: There are a set of KCOV patches from Andrey in -next:

Git cleanly merges this patch with those patches, and no merge conflict
is expected.
