Subject: kcov: check kcov_softirq in kcov_remote_stop()

kcov_remote_stop() should check that the corresponding kcov_remote_start()
actually found the specified remote handle and started collecting
coverage.  This is done by checking the per thread kcov_softirq flag.

A particular failure scenario where this was observed involved a softirq
with a remote coverage collection section coming between check_kcov_mode()
and the access to t->kcov_area in __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc().  In that
softirq kcov_remote_start() bailed out after kcov_remote_find() check, but
the matching kcov_remote_stop() didn't check if kcov_remote_start()
succeeded, and overwrote per thread kcov parameters with invalid (zero)
values.
