bpf: Convert BPF_DISPATCHER to use static_call() (not ftrace)
The dispatcher function is currently abusing the ftrace __fentry__ call location for its own purposes -- this obviously gives trouble when the dispatcher and ftrace are both in use. A previous solution tried using __attribute__((patchable_function_entry())) which works, except it is GCC-8+ only, breaking the build on the earlier still supported compilers. Instead use static_call() -- which has its own annotations and does not conflict with ftrace -- to rewrite the dispatch function. By using: return static_call()(ctx, insni, bpf_func) you get a perfect forwarding tail call as function body (iow a single jmp instruction). By having the default static_call() target be bpf_dispatcher_nop_func() it retains the default behaviour (an indirect call to the argument function). Only once a dispatcher program is attached is the target rewritten to directly call the JIT'ed image.
