Which is basically what I do for ftrace. Which is why we have all these:

select HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE
select HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS
select HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS
select HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS
select HAVE_SAMPLE_FTRACE_DIRECT
select HAVE_SAMPLE_FTRACE_DIRECT_MULTI

in the architecture Kconfigs.
