It seems that all nf_hooks_needed related are using the macro,

see net/netfilter/core.c and include/linux/netfilter.h,

   #ifdef CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL
   struct static_key nf_hooks_needed[NFPROTO_NUMPROTO][NF_MAX_HOOKS];
EXPORT_SYMBOL(nf_hooks_needed);
#endif

   nf_static_key_inc()/nf_static_key_dec()
