This may or may not be the cause of the specific regression you're observing,
but I just noticed that the proposed patch drops a lot of FORCEINLINE
annotations from upstream LZ4.  The FORCEINLINE's are there for a reason,
especially for the main decompression and compression functions which are
basically "templates" that take in different sets of constant parameters, and
should be left in.  We should #define FORCEINLINE to __always_inline somewhere,
or just do a s/FORCEINLINE/__always_inline/g.

Note that the upstream LZ4 code is very carefully optimized, so we should not,
in general, be changing things like when functions are force-inlined, what the
hash table size is, etc.

[Also, for some reason linux-crypto is apparently still not receiving patch 1/5
in the series.  It's missing from the linux-crypto archive at
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-crypto/, so it's not just me.]

Thanks!

Eric
