[PATCH v2 0/7] Implement inline static calls on PPC32 - v2

This series applies on top of the series v3 "objtool: Enable and
implement --mcount option on powerpc" [1] rebased on powerpc-next branch

A few modifications are done to core parts to enable powerpc
implementation:
- R_X86_64_PC32 is abstracted to R_REL32 so that it can then be
redefined as R_PPC_REL32.
- A call to static_call_init() is added to start_kernel() to avoid
every architecture to have to call it
- Trampoline address is provided to arch_static_call_transform() even
when setting a site to fallback on a call to the trampoline when the
target is too far.
