commit 8ea815399c3fcce1889bd951fec25b5b9a3979c1 upstream.
__ADDRESSABLE_ASM_STR() is where the necessary stringification happens. As long as "sym" doesn't contain any odd characters, no quoting is required for its use with .quad / .long. In fact the quotation gets in the way with gas 2.25; it's only from 2.26 onwards that quoted symbols are half-way properly supported.
However, assembly being different from C anyway, drop __ADDRESSABLE_ASM_STR() and its helper macro altogether. A simple .global directive will suffice to get the symbol "declared", i.e. into the symbol table. While there also stop open-coding STATIC_CALL_TRAMP() and STATIC_CALL_KEY().
