Subject: [PATCH 11/22] Inline __rmqueue_smallest()

Inline __rmqueue_smallest by altering flow very slightly so that there is
only one call site. Because there is only one call-site, this function
can then be inlined without causing text bloat. On an x86-based config,
this patch reduces text by 16 bytes.
