Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/2] net: add EXPORT_INDIRECT_CALLABLE wrapper

When a static function is annotated with INDIRECT_CALLABLE_SCOPE and
CONFIG_RETPOLINE is set, the static keyword is removed. Sometimes the
function needs to be exported but EXPORT_SYMBOL can't be used because if
CONFIG_RETPOLINE is not set, we will attempt to export a static symbol.

This patch introduces a new indirect call wrapper:
EXPORT_INDIRECT_CALLABLE. This basically does EXPORT_SYMBOL when
CONFIG_RETPOLINE is set, but does nothing when it's not.
