um: Disable GCOV_PROFILE_ALL on 32-bit UML with Clang 20/21
Clang 20 and 21 miscompute __builtin_object_size() when -fprofile-arcs
is active on 32-bit UML targets, which passes incorrect object size
calculations for local variables through always_inline copy_to_user()
and check_copy_size(), causing spurious compile-time errors:
include/linux/ucopysize.h:52:4: error: call to '__bad_copy_from' declared with 'error' attribute: copy source size is too small
The regression was introduced in LLVM commit 02b8ee281947 ("[llvm]
Improve llvm.objectsize computation by computing GEP, alloca and malloc
parameters bound"), which shipped in Clang 20. It was fixed in LLVM
by commit 45b697e610fd ("[MemoryBuiltins] Consider index type size
when aggregating gep offsets"), which was backported to the LLVM 22.x
release branch.
The bug requires 32-bit UML + GCOV_PROFILE_ALL (which uses -fprofile-arcs),
though the exact trigger depends on optimizer decisions influenced by other
enabled configs.
Prevent the bad combination by disabling UML's ARCH_HAS_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL
on 32-bit when using Clang 20.x or 21.x.
