	When indirect calls are switched to direct calls then it has to be ensured that the call target is not the function, but the call thunk when call depth tracking is enabled. But static calls are available before call thunks have been set up. Ensure a second run through the static call patching code after call thunks have been created. When call thunks are not enabled this has no side effects.

2022-04-05	static_call: Don't make __static_call_return0 static	Christophe Leroy
	System.map shows that vmlinux contains several instances of __static_call_return0(): c0004fc0 t __static_call_return0 c0011518 t __static_call_return0 c00d8160 t __static_call_return0 arch_static_call_transform() uses the middle one to check whether we are setting a call to __static_call_return0 or not: c0011520 <arch_static_call_transform>: c0011520: 3d 20 c0 01 lis r9,-16383 <== r9 = 0xc001 << 16 c0011524: 39 29 15 18 addi r9,r9,5400 <== r9 += 0x1518 c0011528: 7c 05 48 00 cmpw r5,r9 <== r9 has value 0xc0011518 here So if static_call_update() is called with one of the other instances of __static_call_return0(), arch_static_call_transform() won't recognise it. In order to work properly, global single instance of __static_call_return0() is required.
