Subject: gcov: enable GCOV_PROFILE_ALL for x86_64
From: Peter Oberparleiter <oberpar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Enable gcov profiling of the entire kernel on x86_64. Required changes
include disabling profiling for:

* arch/kernel/acpi/realmode and arch/kernel/boot/compressed:
  not linked to main kernel
* arch/vdso, arch/kernel/vsyscall_64 and arch/kernel/hpet:
  profiling causes segfaults during boot (incompatible context)
