Revert the following 9 commits: [1] 5bdcd510c2ac ("x86/jump-labels: Macrofy inline assembly code to work around GCC inlining bugs") This was partially reverted because it made good cleanups irrespective of the inlining issue; the error message is still unneeded, and the conversion to STATIC_BRANCH_{NOP,JUMP} should be kept.

if PIE is enabled, switch the paravirt assembly constraints to be compatible. The %c/i constrains generate smaller code so is kept by default.

Replace all the open-coded macros for generating calls with a pair of more general macros (__PVOP_CALL/VCALL), and redefine all the PVOP_V?CALL[0-4] in terms of them.

Remove the inline asm duplication in ____PVOP_CALL(). Also add 'IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_X86_32)' to the return variable logic, making the code clearer and rendering the comment unnecessary.
