Yes, .gcda files generated by a Clang-built kernel could only be
parsed by llvm-cov, but not gcc gcov (at least in my local tests).

llvm-cov documentation also indicates that GCC and LLVM gcov tools are
not necessarily compatible. "[llvm-cov] is compatible with the gcov
tool from version 4.2 of GCC and may also be compatible with some
later versions of gcov."
