Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 1/6] MIPS: Prevent link failure with kcov instrumentation

From: Jouni Hogander <jouni.hogander@...kie.com>

[ Upstream commit a4a3893114a41e365274d5fab5d9ff5acc235ff0 ]

__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() is not linked in and causing link
failure if KCOV_INSTRUMENT is enabled. Fix this by disabling
instrumentation for compressed image.
