This series is really two changes: - patch 1 to 4 clean up NULLable kvm_x86_ops so that they are marked in kvm-x86-ops.h and the non-NULLable ones WARN if used incorrectly. As an additional outcome of the review, a few more uses of static_call_cond are introduced. - patch 5 allows to NULL a few kvm_x86_ops that return a value, by using __static_call_ret0.
