    Its a rather large function, inline doesn't seems to make much sense:
    
     $ size defconfig-build/kernel/sched/core.o{.orig,}
        text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
       56533   21037    2320   79890   13812 defconfig-build/kernel/sched/core.o.orig
       55733   21037    2320   79090   134f2 defconfig-build/kernel/sched/core.o
    
    The 'perf bench sched messaging' micro-benchmark shows a visible improvement
    of 4-5%:
    
      $ for i in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor ; do echo performance > $i ; done
      $ perf stat --null --repeat 25 -- perf bench sched messaging -g 40 -l 5000
