[AArch64] Fix libc internal asm profiling code
When glibc is built with --enable-profile, the ENTRY of asm functions includes CALL_MCOUNT for profiling. (matters for binaries static linked against libc_p.a.) CALL_MCOUNT did not save/restore argument registers around the _mcount call so it clobbered them. (it is enough to only save/restore the arguments passed to a given asm function, but that would be too many asm changes so it is simpler to always save all argument registers in this macro.) float args are not saved: mcount does not clobber the float regs and currently no asm function takes float arguments anyway. [BZ #18707] * sysdeps/aarch64/Makefile (CFLAGS-mcount.c): Add -mgeneral-regs-only. * sysdeps/aarch64/sysdep.h (CALL_MCOUNT): Save argument registers.
