Arnd Bergmann e0ddec73fd kcov: add prototypes for helper functions
A number of internal functions in kcov are only called from generated code
and don't technically need a declaration, but 'make W=1' warns about
global symbols without a prototype:

kernel/kcov.c:199:14: error: no previous prototype for '__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
kernel/kcov.c:264:14: error: no previous prototype for '__sanitizer_cov_trace_cmp1' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
kernel/kcov.c:270:14: error: no previous prototype for '__sanitizer_cov_trace_cmp2' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
kernel/kcov.c:276:14: error: no previous prototype for '__sanitizer_cov_trace_cmp4' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
kernel/kcov.c:282:14: error: no previous prototype for '__sanitizer_cov_trace_cmp8' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
kernel/kcov.c:288:14: error: no previous prototype for '__sanitizer_cov_trace_const_cmp1' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
kernel/kcov.c:295:14: error: no previous prototype for '__sanitizer_cov_trace_const_cmp2' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
kernel/kcov.c:302:14: error: no previous prototype for '__sanitizer_cov_trace_const_cmp4' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
kernel/kcov.c:309:14: error: no previous prototype for '__sanitizer_cov_trace_const_cmp8' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
kernel/kcov.c:316:14: error: no previous prototype for '__sanitizer_cov_trace_switch' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]

Adding prototypes for these in a header solves that problem, but now there
is a mismatch between the built-in type and the prototype on 64-bit
architectures because they expect some functions to take a 64-bit
'unsigned long' argument rather than an 'unsigned long long' u64 type:

include/linux/kcov.h:84:6: error: conflicting types for built-in function '__sanitizer_cov_trace_switch'; expected 'void(long long unsigned int,  void *)' [-Werror=builtin-declaration-mismatch]
   84 | void __sanitizer_cov_trace_switch(u64 val, u64 *cases);
      |      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Avoid this as well with a custom type definition.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
