[PATCH] re-inline sched functions
This could be part of the unknown 2% performance regression with
db transaction processing benchmark.
The four functions in the following patch use to be inline. They
are un-inlined since 2.6.7.
We measured that by re-inline them back on 2.6.9, it improves
performance
for db transaction processing benchmark, +0.2% (on real hardware :-)
The cost is certainly larger kernel size, cost 928 bytes on x86, and
2728 bytes on ia64. But certainly worth the money for enterprise
customer since they improve performance on enterprise workload.

Possible we can introduce them back?
