4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Greentime Hu <greentime@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 3350139c0ff3c95724b784f7109987d533cb3ecd ] This patch is used to fix nds32 allmodconfig/allyesconfig build error because GCOV kernel embeds counters in the kernel for each line and a part of that embed in __exit text. So we need to keep the EXIT_TEXT and EXIT_DATA if CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL=y.
