Could the patches please be reordered to have this one first in the
series? I could make use of it in my paravirt simplification series.

I'll include this patch (in slightly modified form. i.e. without the
__static_call_return0() parts) in my series in order to make it
build.

My tests suggest you should also update
tools/include/linux/static_call_types.h
