[PATCH v3 6/6] powerpc/static_call: Implement inline static calls

Thu Sep 1 21:48:25 AEST 2022


Implement inline static calls:
- Put a 'bl' to the destination function ('b' if tail call)
- Put a 'nop' when the destination function is NULL ('blr' if tail call)
- Put a 'li r3,0' when the destination is the RET0 function and not
a tail call.

If the destination is too far (over the 32Mb limit), go via the
trampoline.
