[RFC PATCH 0/3] x86/paravirt: Get rid of paravirt patching
This is a small series getting rid of paravirt patching by switching
completely to alternative patching for the same functionality.
The basic idea is to add the capability to switch from indirect to
direct calls via a special alternative patching option.
This removes _some_ of the paravirt macro maze, but most of it needs
to stay due to the need of hiding the call instructions from the
compiler
