Subject: [PATCH 4/4] x86: Ignore stack unwinding in KCOV
From: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com>

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"

Stack unwinding produces large amounts of uninteresting coverage.
It's called from KASAN kmalloc/kfree hooks, fault injection, etc.
It's not particularly useful and is not a function of system call args.
Ignore that code.
