I'll do it like below :
+static void *mtk_max_lro_buf_alloc(gfp_t gfp_mask)
+{
+       unsigned long data;
+       unsigned int size = mtk_max_frag_size(MTK_MAX_LRO_RX_LENGTH);
+
+       data = __get_free_pages(gfp_mask | __GFP_COMP | __GFP_NOWARN,
+                               get_order(size));
+
+       return (void *)data;
+}

Through analysis of the ASM code from objdump, I confirmed that 
the inline is not necessary. Thanks for your tips.

Also, I confirmed that create a new local variable 'size'
will not affect the generation of a constant 'order' parameter at compile time.


ASM code of calling 'mtk_max_lro_buf_alloc':

'mtk_max_lro_buf_alloc' inlined and 'order'(w1) is a constant 0x2

The compiler is smart.
