Subject: [PATCH] KCOV: Introduced tracing unique covered PCs
Introduced new tracing mode KCOV_MODE_UNIQUE.
It simply stores the executed PCs.
The execution order is discarded.
Each bit in the shared buffer represents every fourth
byte of the text segment.
Since a call instruction on every supported
architecture is at least four bytes, it is safe
to just store every fourth byte of the text segment.
In contrast to KCOV_MODE_TRACE_PC, the shared buffer
cannot overflow. Thus, all executed PCs are recorded.
