Subject: [PATCH V6] GCOV: Add config to check the preqequisites situation

From: Cixi Geng <[email protected]>

Introduce new configuration option GCOV_PROFILE_PREREQS that can be
used to check whether the prerequisites for enabling gcov profiling
for specific files and directories are met.

Only add SERIAL_GCOV for an example.

Yes. As it is now there's still a prompt for the prereq symbol. There
should be no prompt for this symbol in the config dialog.

Replace the portion above with these lines:

config GCOV_PROFILE_PREREQS
def_bool y if GCOV_KERNEL && !COMPILE_TEST
