Hi Shuah,

We could have this field always defined, which allows us to not check
CONFIG_KCOV in the places where it's used (this is what we do for
vhost; the kcov functions will be optimized away). Or we could keep
the ifdef CONFIG_KCOV check here, and then add the same checks to
other places.

What would be your preference here?

Thanks!
