We check IS_DAX(inode) before calling either xfs_file_dax_read or xfs_file_dax_write, and this will lead the call being optimized out at compile time when CONFIG_FS_DAX is disabled. However, the two functions are marked STATIC, so they become global symbols when CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG is set, leaving us with two unused global functions that call into an undefined function and a broken "allmodconfig" build: fs/built-in.o: In function `xfs_file_dax_read': fs/xfs/xfs_file.c:348: undefined reference to `dax_do_io' fs/built-in.o: In function `xfs_file_dax_write': fs/xfs/xfs_file.c:758: undefined reference to `dax_do_io' Marking the two functions 'static noinline' instead of 'STATIC' will let the compiler drop the symbols when there are no callers but avoid the implicit inlining.
