Peter Zijlstra 9d80f3e600 x86/static_call: Add support for Jcc tail-calls 
commit 923510c88d upstream.

Clang likes to create conditional tail calls like:

  0000000000000350 <amd_pmu_add_event>:
  350:       0f 1f 44 00 00          nopl   0x0(%rax,%rax,1) 351: R_X86_64_NONE      __fentry__-0x4
  355:       48 83 bf 20 01 00 00 00         cmpq   $0x0,0x120(%rdi)
  35d:       0f 85 00 00 00 00       jne    363 <amd_pmu_add_event+0x13>     35f: R_X86_64_PLT32     __SCT__amd_pmu_branch_add-0x4
  363:       e9 00 00 00 00          jmp    368 <amd_pmu_add_event+0x18>     364: R_X86_64_PLT32     __x86_return_thunk-0x4

Where 0x35d is a static call site that's turned into a conditional
tail-call using the Jcc class of instructions.

Teach the in-line static call text patching about this.

Notably, since there is no conditional-ret, in that case patch the Jcc
to point at an empty stub function that does the ret -- or the return
thunk when needed.

[nathan: Backport to 6.1:
         - Use __x86_return_thunk instead of x86_return_thunk for func in
           __static_call_transform()
         - Remove ASM_FUNC_ALIGN in __static_call_return() asm, as call
           depth tracking was merged in 6.2]

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
