The CONFIG_STACKTRACE=n versions should be regular C functions, not macros. But stacktrace.c decided to do them all as macros, unfortunately. in_irqentry_text() is probably too large to be inlined as well, and should return bool. Declarations for __irqentry_text_start and friends already exist in include/asm-generic/sections.h (and, for some reason, also in arch/arm/include/asm/traps.h) and should not be duplicated in include/linux/stacktrace.h.
