LLVM changed the expected function signatures for llvm_gcda_start_file() and llvm_gcda_emit_function() in the clang-11 release. Users of clang-11 or newer may have noticed their kernels failing to boot due to a panic when enabling CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL=y +CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL=y. Fix up the function signatures so calling these functions doesn't panic the kernel.
The first patch should allow us to backport it to stable; the second drops support for older toolchains.
