Declare vmread_error_trampoline() as an opaque symbol so that it cannot be called from C code, at least not without some serious fudging. The trampoline always passes parameters on the stack so that the inline VMREAD sequence doesn't need to clobber registers. regparm(0) was originally added to document the stack behavior, but it ended up being confusing because regparm(0) is a nop for 64-bit targets. Opportunustically wrap the trampoline and its declaration in #ifdeffery to make it even harder to invoke incorrectly, to document why it exists, and so that it's not left behind if/when CONFIG_CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT is true for all supported toolchains. No functional change intended.
