Currently there's a KCOV remote coverage collection section in
__usb_hcd_giveback_urb(). Initially that section was added based on the
assumption that usb_hcd_giveback_urb() can only be called in interrupt
context as indicated by a comment before it. This is what happens when
syzkaller is fuzzing the USB stack via the dummy_hcd driver.
As it turns out, it's actually valid to call usb_hcd_giveback_urb() in task
context, provided that the caller turned off the interrupts; USB/IP does
exactly that. This can lead to a nested KCOV remote coverage collection
sections both trying to collect coverage in task context. This isn't
supported by KCOV, and leads to a WARNING.
The approach this patch takes is to annotate every call of kcov_remote_*()
callbacks with the context those callbacks are supposed to be executed in.
If the current context doesn't match the mask provided to a callback,
that callback is ignored. KCOV currently only supports collecting remote
coverage in two contexts: task and softirq. This patch constraints KCOV to
only collect coverage from __usb_hcd_giveback_urb() when it's executed in
softirq context.
As the result, the coverage from USB/IP related usb_hcd_giveback_urb() calls
won't be collected, but the WARNING is fixed.
A potential future improvement would be to support nested remote coverage
collection sections, but this patch doesn't address that.

+Besides a handle, kcov_remote_start()/kcov_remote_stop() annotations accept

Internally kcov stores handles as u64 integers. The top byte of a handle
is used to denote the id of a subsystem that this handle belongs to, and
the lower 4 bytes are used to denote the id of a thread instance within
