Josh Poimboeuf a63068e939 static_call: Allow module use without exposing static_call_key
[ Upstream commit 73f44fe19d359635a607e8e8daa0da4001c1cfc2 ]

When exporting static_call_key; with EXPORT_STATIC_CALL*(), the module
can use static_call_update() to change the function called.  This is
not desirable in general.

Not exporting static_call_key however also disallows usage of
static_call(), since objtool needs the key to construct the
static_call_site.

Solve this by allowing objtool to create the static_call_site using
the trampoline address when it builds a module and cannot find the
static_call_key symbol. The module loader will then try and map the
trampole back to a key before it constructs the normal sites list.

Doing this requires a trampoline -> key associsation, so add another
magic section that keeps those.
