[PATCH v2 0/3] Noinstr fixes for K[CA]SAN with GCOV

[Brendan Jackman]

Details:

 - ❯❯  clang --version
   Debian clang version 19.1.7 (3+build5)
   Target: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
   Thread model: posix
   InstalledDir: /usr/lib/llvm-19/bin

 - Kernel config:

Note I also get this error:

vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: set_ftrace_ops_ro+0x3b: relocation to !ENDBR: machine_kexec_prepare+0x810

That one's a total mystery to me. I guess it's better to "fix" the SEV
one independently rather than waiting until I know how to fix them both.

Note I also mentioned other similar errors in [0]. Those errors don't
exist in Linus' master and I didn't note down where I saw them. Either
they have since been fixed, or I observed them in Google's internal
codebase where they were instroduced downstream.

As discussed in [2], the GCOV+*SAN issue is attacked from two angles:
both adding __always_inline to the instrumentation helpers AND disabling
GCOV for noinstr.c. Only one or the other of these things is needed to
make the build error go away, but they both make sense in their own
right and both may serve to prevent other similar errors from cropping
up in future.
