While __noinstr already contained __no_sanitize_coverage, it needs to
be added to __init and __head section markings to support the Clang
implementation of CONFIG_STACKLEAK. This is to make sure the stack depth
tracking callback is not executed in unsupported contexts.

The other sanitizer coverage options (trace-pc and trace-cmp) aren't
needed in __head nor __init either ("We are interested in code coverage
as a function of a syscall inputs"[1]), so this appears safe to disable
for them as well.

@ Dmitry, Aleksandr - Will this produce some unwanted side-effects for
syzbot? I also think it's safe, but just double checking.

I do not see any problems with this.
