CONFIG_NOP_MCOUNT is used for FTRACE_MCOUNT_USE_CC, so instead of:

diff --git a/arch/x86/Kconfig b/arch/x86/Kconfig
index f9920f1341c8..a8dd138df637 100644
--- a/arch/x86/Kconfig

        select HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT
        select HAVE_OBJTOOL_MCOUNT              if HAVE_OBJTOOL
+       select HAVE_NOP_MCOUNT                  if HAVE_OBJTOOL_MCOUNT
        select HAVE_BUILDTIME_MCOUNT_SORT
        select HAVE_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK
        select HAVE_DMA_CONTIGUOUS

I think you should do:

+       select HAVE_NOP_MCOUNT                  if FTRACE_MCOUNT_USE_OBJTOOL


I was hoping we could reuse CONFIG_NOP_MCOUNT seeing as it is only used 
by s390, but I now wonder if it is better to just keep that separate. We 
could introduce HAVE_OBJTOOL_NOP_MCOUNT for objtool instead.
