Subject: [PATCH] ubsan: mark ubsan_type_mismatch_common inline

objtool points out a condition that it does not like:

lib/ubsan.o: warning: objtool: __ubsan_handle_type_mismatch()+0x4a: call to stackleak_track_stack() with UACCESS enabled
lib/ubsan.o: warning: objtool: __ubsan_handle_type_mismatch_v1()+0x4a: call to stackleak_track_stack() with UACCESS enabled

I guess this is related to the call ubsan_type_mismatch_common()
not being inline before it calls user_access_restore(), though
I don't fully understand why that is a problem.

Marking the function inline shuts up the warning and might be
the right thing to do. The patch that caused this is marked
for stable backports, so this one should probably be backported
as well.
