From: Cixi Geng <cixi.geng1@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Replace symbol GCOV_PROFILE_MODULES with GCOV_PROFILE_PREREQS --- The CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL will compile kernel by profiling entire kernel which will lead to kernel run slower.Use GCOV_PROFILE_PREREQS to control part of the kernel modules to open gcov. Only add SERIAL_GCOV for an example.
