Subject: [PATCH] mm/shmem: Inline shmem_is_huge() for disabled transparent hugepages

In order to  minimize code size (CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y),
compiler might choose to make a regular function call (out-of-line) for
shmem_is_huge() instead of inlining it. When transparent hugepages are
disabled (CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=n), it can cause compilation
error.

mm/shmem.c: In function ‘shmem_getattr’:
/include/linux/huge_mm.h:383:27: note: in expansion of macro ‘BUILD_BUG’
  383 | #define HPAGE_PMD_SIZE ({ BUILD_BUG(); 0; })
      |                           ^~~~~~~~~
mm/shmem.c:1148:33: note: in expansion of macro ‘HPAGE_PMD_SIZE’
 1148 |                 stat->blksize = HPAGE_PMD_SIZE;

To prevent the possible error, always inline shmem_is_huge() when
transparent hugepages are disabled.
