Sure, I don't have a better idea right now. I'll try to think of something
after the next iteration.

You're right.

It's just that instead of:

#if defined(CONFIG_HAVE_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC_CALL)
#ifndef preempt_schedule_notrace_dynamic_enabled
#define preempt_schedule_notrace_dynamic_enabled preempt_schedule_notrace
#define preempt_schedule_notrace_dynamic_disabled NULL
#endif

#if defined(CONFIG_HAVE_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC_CALL)
#define preempt_dynamic_enable(f) static_call_update(f, f##_dynamic_enabled)
#define preempt_dynamic_disable(f) static_call_update(f, #f##_dynamic_disabled)

You have:

DECLARE_STATIC_CALL_TOGGLE(preempt_schedule_notrace, __preempt_schedule_notrace_func);

#define preempt_dynamic_enable(f) static_call_enable(f)
#define preempt_dynamic_disable(f) static_call_disable(f)

Thanks.
