Subject: [RFC 5/8] x86: refcount: prevent gcc distortions
GCC considers the number of statements in inlined assembly blocks,
according to new-lines and semicolons, as an indication to the cost of
the block in time and space. This data is distorted by the kernel code,
which puts information in alternative sections. As a result, the
compiler may perform incorrect inlining and branch optimizations.
The solution is to set an assembly macro and call it from the inlined
assembly block. As a result GCC considers the inline assembly block as
a single instruction.
This patch allows to inline functions such as __get_seccomp_filter().
The effect of the patch is as follows on the kernel size:
text data bss dec hex filename
18146418 10064100 2936832 31147350 1db4556 ./vmlinux before
18148228 10063968 2936832 31149028 1db4be4 ./vmlinux after (+1678)
Static text symbols:
Before: 39673
After: 39649 (-24)
