Hmm, I've been involved with static keys since it was introduced. I
simply copied the code for the original use case (tracepoints). I
forgot that we are changing the name (this has been an ongoing bikeshed
for some time, I can't keep up. Better than the original suggestion
"really_unlikely()" ;)

I need to update tracepoints too.
