[PATCH] gcov,x86: Mark GCOV broken for x86

[Peter Zijlstra]

As recently discovered, there is no function attribute to disable the
-fprofile-generate instrumentation. As such, GCOV is fundamentally
incompatible with architectures that rely on 'noinstr' for correctness.

Until such time as that compilers have added a function attribute to
disable this instrumentation, mark GCOV as broken.
