[RFC PATCH kernel] trace: Make FTRACE_MCOUNT_USE_RECORDMCOUNT configurable

[Alexey Kardashevskiy <aik@ozlabs.ru>]

For whatever reason LLVM does not allow LTO (Link Time Optimization) if
FTRACE_MCOUNT_USE_RECORDMCOUNT is enabled.

This allows disabling just this option instead of disabling all FTRACE
options.

Or disabling FTRACE is the right thing to do if HAS_LTO_CLANG=y?

Came from arch/Kconfig:

config HAS_LTO_CLANG
        def_bool y
        depends on CC_IS_CLANG && LD_IS_LLD && AS_IS_LLVM
        depends on $(success,$(NM) --help | head -n 1 | grep -qi llvm)
        depends on $(success,$(AR) --help | head -n 1 | grep -qi llvm)
        depends on ARCH_SUPPORTS_LTO_CLANG
        depends on !FTRACE_MCOUNT_USE_RECORDMCOUNT  <======
        depends on !KASAN || KASAN_HW_TAGS
        depends on !GCOV_KERNEL
