[PATCH v2 3/3] Kconfig: add ARCH_WANTS_NO_INSTR+CC_HAS_NO_PROFILE_FN_ATTR, depend on for GCOV and PGO

From: Nick Desaulniers
Date: Mon Jun 21 2021 - 19:19:09 EST


We don't want compiler instrumentation to touch noinstr functions, which
are annotated with the no_profile_instrument_function function
attribute. Add a Kconfig test for this and make PGO and GCOV depend on
it.

If an architecture is using noinstr, it should denote that via this
Kconfig value. That makes Kconfigs that depend on noinstr able to
express dependencies in an architecturally agnostic way.

Changes V1 -> V2:
* Add ARCH_WANTS_NO_INSTR
* Change depdendencies to be !ARCH_WANTS_NO_INSTR || CC_HAS_NO_PROFILE_FN_ATTR
rather than list architectures explicitly, as per Nathan.
* s/no_profile/no_profile_instrument_function/
