ms/kcov: don't trace the code coverage code
Kcov causes the compiler to add a call to __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() in
every basic block. Ftrace patches in a call to _mcount() to each
function it has annotated.
Letting these mechanisms annotate each other is a bad thing. Break the
loop by adding 'notrace' to __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() so that ftrace
won't try to patch this code.
This patch lets arm64 with KCOV and STACK_TRACER boot.
