Hi,
I think generally this is the right thing to do.
There are 2 pending patches for kcov by +Quentin (hopefully in mm):
"kcov: add AFL-style tracing"
"kcov: size of arena is now given in bytes"

Your patch probably conflicts with them.
Should you base them on top of these patches, so that Andrew can merge
it without conflicts?
