hmmm..this always going to do a call to 'kvm_mmu_audit' and then return.
I think you want to avoid the function call altogether. You could do
something like:

#define kvm_mmu_audit()
	if (static_branch((&mmu_audit_key))) {
		__kvm_mmu_audit();
	}

and s/kvm_mmu_audit/__kvm_mmu_audit

That should give you a single nop for the case where kvm_mmu_audit is
disabled instead of a function call.

Thanks,
