Subject: [PATCH 5.8 016/255] gcc-plugins/stackleak: Dont instrument itself

From: Alexander Popov <alex.popov@...ux.com>

[ Upstream commit 005e696df65d0ff90468ecf38a50aa584dc82421 ]

There is no need to try instrumenting functions in kernel/stackleak.c.
Otherwise that can cause issues if the cleanup pass of stackleak gcc plugin
is disabled.
