With GCOV_PROFILE_ALL, Clang injects __llvm_gcov_* functions to each object file, and the functions are indirectly called during boot. However, when code is injected to object files that are not part of vmlinux.o, it's also not processed by objtool, which breaks CFI hash randomization as the hashes in these files won't be included in the .cfi_sites section and thus won't be randomized. Similarly to commit 42633ed852de ("kbuild: Fix CFI hash randomization with KASAN"), disable GCOV for .vmlinux.export.o and init/version-timestamp.o to avoid emitting unnecessary functions to object files that don't otherwise have executable code.
