- * KVM_X86_OP() and KVM_X86_OP_OPTIONAL() are used to help generate

- * "static_call_update()" calls.
- *
- * KVM_X86_OP_OPTIONAL() can be used for those functions that can have
- * a NULL definition, for example if "static_call_cond()" will be used
- * at the call sites.  KVM_X86_OP_OPTIONAL_RET0() can be used likewise
- * to make a definition optional, but in this case the default will
- * be __static_call_return0.
+ * KVM_X86_OP() is used to help generate both DECLARE/DEFINE_STATIC_CALL()
+ * invocations and static_call_update() calls. All the hooks defined can be
+ * optional now, as invocation to an undefined hook (i.e.) has now been treated
+ * as a NOP by static_call().
+ * KVM_X86_OP_RET0() can be used to make an undefined operation be
+ * __static_call_return0.
