mm: uninline copy_overflow()
While building a small config with CONFIG_CC_OPTIMISE_FOR_SIZE, I ended
up with more than 50 times the following function in vmlinux because GCC
doesn't honor the 'inline' keyword:
c00243bc <copy_overflow>:
c00243bc: 94 21 ff f0 stwu r1,-16(r1)
c00243c0: 7c 85 23 78 mr r5,r4
c00243c4: 7c 64 1b 78 mr r4,r3
c00243c8: 3c 60 c0 62 lis r3,-16286
c00243cc: 7c 08 02 a6 mflr r0
c00243d0: 38 63 5e e5 addi r3,r3,24293
c00243d4: 90 01 00 14 stw r0,20(r1)
c00243d8: 4b ff 82 45 bl c001c61c <__warn_printk>
c00243dc: 0f e0 00 00 twui r0,0
c00243e0: 80 01 00 14 lwz r0,20(r1)
c00243e4: 38 21 00 10 addi r1,r1,16
c00243e8: 7c 08 03 a6 mtlr r0
c00243ec: 4e 80 00 20 blr
With -Winline, GCC tells:
/include/linux/thread_info.h:212:20: warning: inlining failed in call to 'copy_overflow': call is unlikely and code size would grow [-Winline]
copy_overflow() is a non conditional warning called by check_copy_size()
on an error path.
check_copy_size() have to remain inlined in order to benefit from
constant folding, but copy_overflow() is not worth inlining.
Uninline the warning when CONFIG_BUG is selected.
When CONFIG_BUG is not selected, WARN() does nothing so skip it.
This reduces the size of vmlinux by almost 4kbytes.
