Merge tag 'x86-build-2024-09-17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 build updates from Thomas Gleixner: "Updates for KCOV instrumentation on x86: - Prevent spurious KCOV coverage in common_interrupt() - Fixup the KCOV Makefile directive which got stale due to a source file rename - Exclude stack unwinding from KCOV as it creates large amounts of uninteresting coverage - Provide a self test to validate that KCOV coverage of the interrupt handling code starts not before preempt count got updated" * tag 'x86-build-2024-09-17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86: Ignore stack unwinding in KCOV module: Fix KCOV-ignored file name kcov: Add interrupt handling self test x86/entry: Remove unwanted instrumentation in common_interrupt()
