The relevant code is:

    vi = f2fs_need_verity(inode, folio->index);              
    if (vi)                                                  
            fsverity_readahead(vi, folio, nr_pages); 

Where:

    f2fs_need_verity()
        => fsverity_get_info()
            => fsverity_active()

If fsverity_active() needs __always_inline, why don't the other two
functions in the call chain need it?
