I guess it's better to have the #ifdef in the header file, but then
again, you could just as well save some source lines doing

#ifndef CONFIG_HCALL_STATS
#define plpar_hcalldef(x) plpar_call_ ## x ## _asm
#else
#define plpar_hcalldef(x) plpar_call_ ## x ## _inst
#endif

#define plpar_call_foo plpar_hcalldef(foo)
