Add static_call support by mirroring how C does. When the platform does not support static calls (right now, that means that it is not x86), then the function pointer is loaded from a global and called. Otherwise, we generate a call to a trampoline function, and objtool is used to make these calls patchable at runtime. Signed-off-by: Alice Ryhl <[email protected]>

Add just enough support for static key so that we can use it from tracepoints. Tracepoints rely on `static_key_false` even though it is deprecated, so we add the same functionality to Rust. Signed-off-by: Alice Ryhl <[email protected]>
-
Make it possible to have Rust code call into tracepoints defined by C code. It is still required that the tracepoint is declared in a C header, and that this header is included in the input to bindgen. Signed-off-by: Alice Ryhl <[email protected]>
