KernelCI reports that bcm2835_defconfig is no longer booting since
commit ac7c3e4ff401 ("compiler: enable CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING
forcibly") (https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/9/26/825).I also received a regression report from Nicolas Saenz Julienne (https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/9/27/263). This problem has cropped up on bcm2835_defconfig because it enables CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE. The compiler tends to prefer not inlining functions with -Os. I was able to reproduce it with other boards and defconfig files by manually enabling CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE. The __get_user_check() specifically uses r0, r1, r2 registers. So, uaccess_save_and_enable() and uaccess_restore() must be inlined. Otherwise, those register assignments would be entirely dropped, according to my analysis of the disassembly. Prior to commit 9012d011660e ("compiler: allow all arches to enable CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING"), the 'inline' marker was always enough for inlining functions, except on x86. Since that commit, all architectures can enable CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING. So, __always_inline is now the only guaranteed way of forcible inlining. I also added __always_inline to 4 functions in the call-graph from the __get_user_check() macro.
