    Subject[for-next][PATCH 01/19] trace: Use -mcount-record for dynamic ftrace
    From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

    gcc 5 supports a new -mcount-record option to generate ftrace
    tables directly. This avoids the need to run record_mcount
    manually.

    Use this option when available.

    So far doesn't use -mcount-nop, which also exists now.

    This is needed to make ftrace work with LTO because the
    normal record-mcount script doesn't run over the link
    time output.

    It should also improve build times slightly in the general
    case.
