So while this looks correct and I still really don't see the major
benefit of the new code organization, especially as it bloats all

I'd love to see code size change stats for an allyesconfig on this
commit.


Right, I'm running that now, will post the results. (btw, if there is
a script and/or standard format I should use, I'm all ears. I'll dig
through lwn...)


Just run:

     size vmlinux


Beautiful. I thought it would involve a lot more. Here's results:

linux.git (Linux 5.4-rc8+):
==============================================
  text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
227578032	213267935	76877984	517723951	1edbd72f	vmlinux


With patches 4 and 5 applied to linux.git:
==========================================
  text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
229698560	213288379	76853408	519840347	1efc225b	vmlinux


Analysis:
=========

This increased the size of text by 0.93%. Which is a measurable bloat, so
the inlining really is undesirable here, yes. I'll do it differently.
