kcov: properly handle subsequent mmap calls

Browse source

Allocate the kcov buffer during KCOV_MODE_INIT in order to untie mmapping
of a kcov instance and the actual coverage collection process. Modify
kcov_mmap, so that it can be reliably used any number of times once
KCOV_MODE_INIT has succeeded.

These changes to the user-facing interface of the tool only weaken the
preconditions, so all existing user space code should remain compatible
with the new version.
