Inspection of kmem_cache_free() disassembly showed we could make the
fast path smaller by providing few more hints to the compiler, and
splitting the memcg_slab_free_hook() into an inline part that only
checks if there's work to do, and an out of line part doing the actual
uncharge.
bloat-o-meter results:
add/remove: 2/0 grow/shrink: 0/3 up/down: 286/-554 (-268)
Function old new delta
__memcg_slab_free_hook - 270 +270
__pfx___memcg_slab_free_hook - 16 +16
kfree 828 665 -163
kmem_cache_free 1116 948 -168
kmem_cache_free_bulk.part 1701 1478 -223
Checking kmem_cache_free() disassembly now shows the non-fastpath
cases are handled out of line, which should reduce instruction cache
usage.
