- every static function in a header file must be __always_inline
Why? Why does it matter whether a function is defined in a .h file or
a .c file? Can't the compiler decide better than

No, unfortunately. Implementing kmalloc_mask() and kmalloc_dev() was
something I said I'd do ... about two years ago.
Tell me more about these ideas.

could you just try v2.6.21 plus the -rt patch, which has the tracer
built-in? That's a combination that should work well. You can pick it up

A function only belongs into a header file if we always want it inlined,
otherwise it belongs into a C file.
Again, why? Why don't we trust the compiler to decide if a function
should be inlined or not, even if the definition happens to be in a .h
file?
It seems like a perfectly valid

Hi there,
Attached is a patch which may be desirable for -mm. It applies
directly to 2.6.22-rc2-mm1.
The patch removes the 'unsafe' LZO decompression function, lowering
the size of the minilzo.c file by nearly 500 out of an original 1727
lines. It also removes references to the 'unsafe'
