Also double-check the Makefile-based solution: the Makefiles in both
directories already contain various KCOV_INSTRUMENT/K*SAN_SANITIZE :=
n, so perhaps adding GCOV_PROFILE or GCOV_PROFILE_whicheverfile.o := n
may be more appropriate should the functions that should not be
instrumented be a moving target, and prone to breakage again in
future.
