Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.1 2/4] powerpc/kasan: Disable KCOV in KASAN code

From: Benjamin Gray <bgray@...ux.ibm.com>

[ Upstream commit ccb381e1af1ace292153c88eb1fffa5683d16a20 ]

As per the generic KASAN code in mm/kasan, disable KCOV with
KCOV_INSTRUMENT := n in the makefile.

This fixes a ppc64 boot hang when KCOV and KASAN are enabled.
kasan_early_init() gets called before a PACA is initialised, but the
KCOV hook expects a valid PACA.
