Woah, a godbolt link! Now we're speaking the same language.  What were
you expecting? Us to remove the conditional check that a volatile read
wasn't NULL? (Not using READ_ONCE, produces the direct tail call I
suspect you're looking for, but am unsure if that's what you meant,
and understand that's not a solution).  I am simultaneously impressed
and disgusted by this btw, cool stuff.

i.e.
void *func = &name.func; \
rather than
void *func = READ_ONCE(name.func); \
(I'm surprised that `&name.func;` and `name.func;` also produce
different results).
