Seems to be inlined anyway. do you want to inline vmacache_update()?
It looks simple enough (vmacache_valid_mm() is inlined):

void vmacache_update(unsigned long addr, struct vm_area_struct *newvma)
{
	if (vmacache_valid_mm(newvma->vm_mm))
		current->vmacache[VMACACHE_HASH(addr)] = newvma;
}


After moving vmacache_update() and vmacache_valid_mm() to include/linux/vmacache.h
(both `static inline')


./scripts/bloat-o-meter vmlinux.o.old vmlinux.o
add/remove: 0/1 grow/shrink: 1/0 up/down: 22/-54 (-32)
function                                     old     new   delta
find_vma                                      97     119     +22
vmacache_update                               54       -     -54


Something like this, perhaps?
