This isn't right...

The whole dummy_perf_snapshot_branch_stack() thing is a declaration only
and used as a typedef. Also, DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_NULL() and
static_call_cond() rely on a void return value, which it doesn't have.

Did you want:

  DECLARE_STATIC_CALL(perf_snapshot_branch_stack, void (*)(struct perf_branch_snapshot *));

  DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_NULL(perf_snapshot_branch_stack, void (*)(struct perf_branch_snapshot *));

  static_call_cond(perf_snapshot_branch_stack)(...);

*OR*, do you actually need that return value, in which case you're
probably looking for:

  DECLARE_STATIC_CALL(perf_snapshot_branch_stack, int (*)(struct perf_branch_snapshot *));

  DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0(perf_snapshot_branch_stack, int (*)(struct perf_branch_snapshot *));

  ret = static_call(perf_snapshot_branch_stack)(...);

?
