This is likely the result of compiling the kernel with GCC 7 while
specifying that gcov-kernel should expect GCC <= 3.4 format data:

dmesg:

.config:

As such, it is an expected test failure. Assuming that this is a
randconfig test, my recommendation would be to blacklist
"CONFIG_GCOV_FORMAT_3_4=y" when using GCC >3.4.
