With CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING and older compilers, we can get a link error such as kernel/task_work.o: In function `__cmpxchg_local_generic': task_work.c:(.text+0x14c): undefined reference to `wrong_size_cmpxchg' kernel/locking/rtmutex.o: In function `__cmpxchg_local_generic': rtmutex.c:(.text+0x5ec): undefined reference to `wrong_size_cmpxchg' kernel/trace/ring_buffer.o: In function `__cmpxchg_local_generic': Marking the functions in question as __always_inline avoids that possibility.
