[PATCH 3/3] jiffies: Force inlining of {m,u}msecs_to_jiffies()

From: Denys Vlasenko
Date: Tue Aug 04 2015 - 10:15:31 EST


With this config:
http://busybox.net/~vda/kernel_config_OPTIMIZE_INLINING_and_Os
gcc-4.7.2 generates many copies of these tiny functions:

msecs_to_jiffies (45 copies):
55 push %rbp
48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
e8 59 ec 03 00 callq __msecs_to_jiffies
5d pop %rbp
c3 retq

usecs_to_jiffies (10 copies):
55 push %rbp
48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
e8 5d 54 5e ff callq __usecs_to_jiffies
5d pop %rbp
c3 retq

See https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=66122

This patch fixes this via s/inline/__always_inline/
