The compiler is so smart, so there is nothing difference between
them. I disassemble the numa_stats_init when
!CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE.

Dump of assembler code for function numa_stats_init:
   0xffffffff8273b061 <+0>: callq  0xffffffff81057490 <__fentry__>
   0xffffffff8273b066 <+5>: xor    %eax,%eax
   0xffffffff8273b068 <+7>: retq
