Thanks a lot for your review!

Hm, that's kind of shocking.  Any chance you have CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL
enabled?  I just discovered that it inserts a bunch of unreachable
instructions which causes a lot of stacktool warnings.  I need to look
into that.

Otherwise, if you don't have gcov enabled, can you share your .config?
