These warnings are not present without CONFIG_LLVM_COV_PROFILE_ALL, so
it certainly seems related to this patchset. In this configuration,
CONFIG_KASAN and CONFIG_LOCKDEP are disabled, so these functions are
simple 'static inline' functions. An immediate theory is that because
this instrumentation is applied by the frontend, these functions will
not actually be empty or simple, which may affect the ability to inline
them and eliminate the instrumentation by the __no_profile from noinstr?
It definitely seems like this should probably be investigated...
