Hmmm fair point, I did not realize that this support had landed in 5.2
meaning that 5.4 needs it as well at 5.10.

If people are happy with this approach, it is the more "stable friendly"
change because it fixes it for all versions of clang that should have
been supported at their respective times. Maybe it is worthwhile to do
both? This change gets picked up with a Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org then
in a follow up patch, we remove the #ifdef's and gate GCOV on clang-11?
The CLANG_VERSION string is usually what we will search for when
removing old workarounds. Additionally, your patch could just use

#if CLANG_VERSION <= 110000

to more easily see this. I have no strong opinion one way or the other
though. If people are happy with this approach, let's do it.

Cheers,
Nathan
