x86: add optimized inlining
add CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING=y.
allow gcc to optimize the kernel image's size by uninlining
functions that have been marked 'inline'. Previously gcc was
forced by Linux to always-inline these functions via a gcc
attribute:
#define inline inline __attribute__((always_inline))
Especially when the user has already selected
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y this can make a huge difference in
kernel image size (using a standard Fedora .config):
text data bss dec hex filename
5613924 562708 3854336 10030968 990f78 vmlinux.before
5486689 562708 3854336 9903733 971e75 vmlinux.after
that's a 2.3% text size reduction (!).
