arm64: entry: don't instrument entry code with KCOV
The code in entry-common.c runs at exception entry and return boundaries, where portions of the kernel environment aren't available. For example, RCU may not be watching, and lockdep state may be out-of-sync with the hardware. Due to this, it is not sound to instrument this code. We generally avoid instrumentation by marking the entry functions as `noinstr`, but currently this doesn't inhibit KCOV instrumentation. Prevent this by disabling KCOV for the entire compilation unit. Signed-off-by:Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Acked-by:
