Subject: [PATCH RESEND v1 1/1] x86/kernel: Increase kcov coverage under arch/x86/kernel folder
Currently kcov instrument is disabled for object files under arch/x86/kernel
folder.
For object files under arch/x86/kernel, actually just disabling the kcov
instrument of files:"head32.o or head64.o and sev.o" could achieve
successful booting and provide kcov coverage for object files that do not
disable kcov instrument.
The additional kcov coverage collected from arch/x86/kernel folder helps
kernel fuzzing efforts to find bugs.
