Pull static call support from Ingo Molnar:
 "This introduces static_call(), which is the idea of static_branch()
  applied to indirect function calls. Remove a data load (indirection)
  by modifying the text.

  They give the flexibility of function pointers, but with better
  performance. (This is especially important for cases where retpolines
  would otherwise be used, as retpolines can be pretty slow.)

  API overview:

      DECLARE_STATIC_CALL(name, func);
      DEFINE_STATIC_CALL(name, func);
      DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_NULL(name, typename);

      static_call(name)(args...);
      static_call_cond(name)(args...);
      static_call_update(name, func);

  x86 is supported via text patching, otherwise basic indirect calls are
  used, with function pointers.

  There's a second variant using inline code patching, inspired by
  jump-labels, implemented on x86 as well.

  The new APIs are utilized in the x86 perf code, a heavy user of
  function pointers, where static calls speed up the PMU handler by
  4.2% (!).

  The generic implementation is not really excercised on other
  architectures, outside of the trivial test_static_call_init()
  self-test"
