    mm: uninline copy_overflow() · ad7489d5

    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.
