The make dependencies of such a change should (hopefully) cause a full
recompile of the code. Yeah, I expect that we only have "mcount" or
"fentry" as something that can be called. If we had both mcount and
fentry, it would fail to link anyway, as we only define mcount or fentry
in the assembly, never both.
