Marco Elver bece04b5b4 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 540540d06e ("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,
commit 0f1441b44e ("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 0f1441b44e, 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.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
