The patch titled
     Subject: kcov: fix generic Kconfig dependencies if ARCH_WANTS_NO_INSTR

From: Marco Elver <elver@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: kcov: fix generic Kconfig dependencies if ARCH_WANTS_NO_INSTR

Until recent versions of GCC and Clang, it was not possible to disable
KCOV instrumentation via a function attribute. The relevant function
attribute was introduced in 540540d06e9d9 ("kcov: add
__no_sanitize_coverage to fix noinstr for all architectures").

x86 was the first architecture to want a working noinstr, and at the
time no compiler support for the attribute existed yet. Therefore,
0f1441b44e823 ("objtool: Fix noinstr vs KCOV") introduced the ability to
NOP __sanitizer_cov_*() calls in .noinstr.text.

However, this doesn't work for other architectures like arm64 and s390
that want a working noinstr per ARCH_WANTS_NO_INSTR.

At the time of 0f1441b44e823, we didn't yet have ARCH_WANTS_NO_INSTR,
but now we can move the Kconfig dependency checks to the generic KCOV
option. KCOV will be available if:

	- architecture does not care about noinstr, OR
	- we have objtool support (like on x86), OR
	- GCC is 12.0 or newer, OR
	- Clang is 13.0 or newer.
