Impact: fix crash on VMI (VMware) When we generate a call sequence for calling a paravirtualized function, we presume that the generated code is "call *0xXXXXX", which is a 6 byte opcode; this is larger than a normal direct call, and so we can patch a direct call over it. At the moment, however we give gcc enough rope to hang us by putting the address in a register and generating a two byte indirect-via-register call. Prevent this by explicitly dereferencing the function pointer and passing it into the asm as a constant. This prevents crashes in VMI, as it cannot handle unpatchable callsites.
