With the inline version of static calls it is trying to use
all static call functions inline. But this doesn't work for
__static_call_return0, because its address is always taken,
which forces the compiler to generate a out of line copy.
If it only exists as a static inline this means there are
many copies generated. Instead use the out of line in static_call.c
for this.
This fixes another bug. When _INLINE is set static_inline.c was
not compiled at all, which disabled the self test even when
it was enabled in the configuration.
This fixes a build problem with gcc LTO. __static_call_return0
is referenced from assembler, which requires making it global
because the assembler can end in a different file than the other
C code. But that's not possible for a static inline function.

This is ARCH=i386 only afaict, why do we care?

Well I'm trying to make LTO build even for 32bit.
Besides the bug with self test is real everywhere.
But looks like the patch didn't apply (I had some earlier
patches which were apparently needed). I'll rebase and repost.
