Subject: [PATCH v4 5/5] powerpc/inst: Optimise copy_inst_from_kernel_nofault()
copy_inst_from_kernel_nofault() uses copy_from_kernel_nofault() to
copy one or two 32bits words. This means calling an out-of-line
function which itself calls back copy_from_kernel_nofault_allowed()
then performs a generic copy with loops.
Rewrite copy_inst_from_kernel_nofault() to do everything at a
single place and use __get_kernel_nofault() directly to perform
single accesses without loops.
Allthough the generic function uses pagefault_disable(), it is not
required on powerpc because do_page_fault() bails earlier when a
kernel mode fault happens on a kernel address.
As the function has now become very small, inline it.
With this change, on an 8xx the time spent in the loop in
ftrace_replace_code() is reduced by 23% at function tracer activation
and 27% at nop tracer activation.
The overall time to activate function tracer (measured with shell
command 'time') is 570ms before the patch and 470ms after the patch.
Even vmlinux size is reduced (by 152 instruction).
