[RFC PATCH 0/7] static call updates

[Ard Biesheuvel]

This series addresses a number of asymmetries and inconsistencies in
both the API and the implementation of static calls. The aim is to
ensure that the documented API is fully implemented and works correctly,
regardless of which variety of static calls the arch decides to
implement.

Another goal of this series is to ensure that the caller of the API does
not need to choose a particular kind of macro depending on whether the
static call exports its key and/or whether the static call in question
may implement the NULL flavor.

  static_call: use non-function types to refer to the trampolines
  static_call: rename EXPORT_ macros to be more self-explanatory
  static_call: add generic support for non-exported keys
