Good point.
Plus the above calls now can happen when APICv is fully disabled (and not just inhibited), which is also something that I think that vmx_sync_pir_to_irr should be fixed to be aware of.
No, that works because sync_pir_to_irr is set to NULL as you point out below. static_call sites are updated right after ops->hardware_setup(), in kvm_arch_hardware_setup.

Also note that VMX has code that sets vmx_x86_ops.sync_pir_to_irr to NULL in its 'hardware_setup' if APICv is disabled. I wonder if that done befor or after the static_call_cond sites are updated. I think that this code should be removed as well, and vmx_sync_pir_to_irr should just do nothing when APICv is fully disabled.
