rcu: Deinline rcu_read_lock_sched_held() if DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y is not a production setting, but it is not very unusual either. Many developers routinely use kernels built with it enabled. Apart from being selected by hand, it is also auto-selected by PROVE_LOCKING "Lock debugging: prove locking correctness" and LOCK_STAT "Lock usage statistics" config options. LOCK STAT is necessary for "perf lock" to work. I wouldn't spend too much time optimizing it, but this particular function has a very large cost in code size: when it is deinlined, code size decreases by 830,000 bytes: text data bss dec hex filename 85674192 22294776 20627456 128596424 7aa39c8 vmlinux.before 84837612 22294424 20627456 127759492 79d7484 vmlinux (with this config: http://busybox.net/~vda/kernel_config) Signed-off-by: Denys Vlasenko <dvlasenk@redhat.com> CC: "Paul E.
