    ms/kcov: properly check if we are in an interrupt
    
    in_interrupt() returns a nonzero value when we are either in an interrupt
    or have bh disabled via local_bh_disable().  Since we are interested in
    only ignoring coverage from actual interrupts, do a proper check instead
    of just calling in_interrupt().
