Frederic Weisbecker 29fd01944b static_call: Provide DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0()
DECLARE_STATIC_CALL() must pass the original function targeted for a
given static call. But DEFINE_STATIC_CALL() may want to initialize it as
off. In this case we can't pass NULL (for functions without return value)
or __static_call_return0 (for functions returning a value) directly
to DEFINE_STATIC_CALL() as that may trigger a static call redeclaration
with a different function prototype. Type casts neither can work around
that as they don't get along with typeof().

The proper way to do that for functions that don't return a value is
to use DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_NULL(). But functions returning a actual value
don't have an equivalent yet.

Provide DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0() to solve this situation.

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.
