Attached is the refreshed patch for trunk.

After commit 264462 (Remove arc profile histogram in non-LTO mode.), the API
of get_coverage_counts was changed a bit. So the main difference between the
current version of my patch from the previous one is that :

Now I use
+      if (counter == GCOV_COUNTER_ARCS)
+       warning_at (DECL_SOURCE_LOCATION (current_function_decl),
+                   OPT_Wmissing_profile,
+                   "profile for function %qD not found in profile data",
+                   current_function_decl);

instead of
+      if (summary)
+       warning_at (DECL_SOURCE_LOCATION (current_function_decl),
+                   OPT_Wmissing_profile,
+                   "profile for function %qD not found in profile data",
+                   current_function_decl);

to warn about missing profile of a function only once (get_coverage_counts is
called from two diff flows : getting exec counts for arc counter and computing
histogram for other other counters)

I am not sure of any better way to avoid superfluous warnings per function.

Is the patch OK ?
