Subject: [PATCH 1/7] trace: Move trace_seq_overflowed out of line

From: Andi Kleen <ak@...ux.intel.com>

Inlining trace_seq_overflowed takes ~17k in text size in my kernel.
The function doesn't seem to be time critical, so we can just out of line it.

Function                                           Total          Avg   Num
trace_seq_has_overflowed                           17134 (0.00%)  33    514

This saves around 6k here

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
