commit 923510c88d upstream.
Clang likes to create conditional tail calls like:
0000000000000350 <amd_pmu_add_event>:
350: 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1) 351: R_X86_64_NONE __fentry__-0x4
355: 48 83 bf 20 01 00 00 00 cmpq $0x0,0x120(%rdi)
35d: 0f 85 00 00 00 00 jne 363 <amd_pmu_add_event+0x13> 35f: R_X86_64_PLT32 __SCT__amd_pmu_branch_add-0x4
363: e9 00 00 00 00 jmp 368 <amd_pmu_add_event+0x18> 364: R_X86_64_PLT32 __x86_return_thunk-0x4
Where 0x35d is a static call site that's turned into a conditional
tail-call using the Jcc class of instructions.
Teach the in-line static call text patching about this.
Notably, since there is no conditional-ret, in that case patch the Jcc
to point at an empty stub function that does the ret -- or the return
thunk when needed.

[nathan: Backport to 6.1:
- Use __x86_return_thunk instead of x86_return_thunk for func in
__static_call_transform()
- Remove ASM_FUNC_ALIGN in __static_call_return() asm, as call
depth tracking was merged in 6.2]

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
