Hi all,

I've ported the above patch from kernel 3.18, which I was able to
successfully run with kcov support on an arm64 device.
The original 3.18 patch is at
https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/#/c/334560/1, it also touches
arch/arm64/kernel/Makefile, which is unnecessary in upstream code,
because efi-stub.c has been moved to libstub.
Therefore I suspect the above patch should be correct, but I don't
have an opportunity to actually test it.

Alex
