[for-next][PATCH 08/13] ftrace: Always inline ftrace_hash_empty() helper function
From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Mon May 12 2014 - 11:14:34 EST
From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>
The ftrace_hash_empty() function is a simple test:
return !hash || !hash->count;
But gcc seems to want to make it a call. As this is in an extreme
hot path of the function tracer, there's no reason it needs to be
a call. I only wrote it to be a helper function anyway, otherwise
it would have been inlined manually.
Force gcc to inline it, as it could have also been a macro.
