Oh, also, if static text optimization is applied to perf calls
directly, it would require about the same complexity overhead as doing
it on top of TPs. It would still have to drain contexts before
turning off those hooks, so the only advantage is the ability to build
the kernel w/ PERF but w/o TPs.

Thanks.
