Using gcov on ARM fails when the frame pointer unwinder is used:

arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: kernel/softirq.o:(.ARM.exidx+0x120): undefined reference to `__aeabi_unwind_cpp_pr0'
arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: init/main.o:(.ARM.exidx+0x98): undefined reference to `__aeabi_unwind_cpp_pr0'
arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: init/version.o:(.ARM.exidx+0x0): undefined reference to `__aeabi_unwind_cpp_pr0'
arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: init/do_mounts.o:(.ARM.exidx+0x28): undefined reference to `__aeabi_unwind_cpp_pr0'
arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: init/do_mounts_initrd.o:(.ARM.exidx+0x0): undefined reference to `__aeabi_unwind_cpp_pr0'
arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: init/initramfs.o:(.ARM.exidx+0x8): more undefined references to `__aeabi_unwind_cpp_pr0' follow

This is likely a bug in clang that should be fixed in the compiler.
Forcing the use of the ARM unwinder in this configuration however
works around the problem.
