commit 05384213436ab690c46d9dfec706b80ef8d671ab upstream.

Starting from GCC 7.1, __gcov_exit is a new symbol expected to be
implemented in a profiling runtime.

commit 3e44c471a2dab210f7e9b1e5f7d4d54d52df59eb upstream.

Fix kernel gcov support for GCC 5.1.  Similar to commit a992bf836f9
("gcov: add support for GCC 4.9"), this patch takes into account the
existence of a new gcov counter (see gcc's gcc/gcov-counter.def.)

Firstly, it increments GCOV_COUNTERS (to 10), which makes the data
structure struct gcov_info compatible with GCC 5.1.

Secondly, a corresponding counter function __gcov_merge_icall_topn (Top N
value tracking for indirect calls) is included in base.c with the other
gcov counters unused for kernel profiling.

Enable gcov support for ARM based on original patches by David
Singleton and George G. Davis

Riku - updated to patch to current mainline kernel. The patch
has been submitted in 2010, 2012 - for symmetry, now in 2014 too.

This patch handles the gcov-related changes in GCC 4.9:

  A new counter (time profile) is added. The total number is 9 now.

  A new profile merge function __gcov_merge_time_profile is added.

See gcc/gcov-io.h and libgcc/libgcov-merge.c

For the first change, the layout of struct gcov_info is affected.

For the second one, a dummy function is added to kernel/gcov/base.c
similarly.
