very little. The best one can do right now is to know enough about Core and the inliner to predict when things are going to be inlined and when not, what else can go wrong (wrappers maybe?), add the necessary controls (`NOINLINE [0]` etc.), and then hope for the best. And track down any instances of failed rewriting that you learn about. You might also be able to set up your code so that it fails (at runtime, with error) if the desired rules did not fire. This would be nicer if we had https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9180. You can also ask for review if it is public code.
