[PATCH] mm: Outline copy_overflow()

[Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu>]

While building a small config with CONFIG_CC_OPTIMISE_FOR_SIZE,
I ended up with more than 50 times the following function in vmlinux:

	c00243bc <copy_overflow>:
	c00243bc:	94 21 ff f0 	stwu    r1,-16(r1)
	c00243c0:	7c 85 23 78 	mr      r5,r4
	c00243c4:	7c 64 1b 78 	mr      r4,r3
	c00243c8:	3c 60 c0 62 	lis     r3,-16286
	c00243cc:	7c 08 02 a6 	mflr    r0
	c00243d0:	38 63 5e e5 	addi    r3,r3,24293
	c00243d4:	90 01 00 14 	stw     r0,20(r1)
	c00243d8:	4b ff 82 45 	bl      c001c61c <__warn_printk>
	c00243dc:	0f e0 00 00 	twui    r0,0
	c00243e0:	80 01 00 14 	lwz     r0,20(r1)
	c00243e4:	38 21 00 10 	addi    r1,r1,16
	c00243e8:	7c 08 03 a6 	mtlr    r0
	c00243ec:	4e 80 00 20 	blr

That function being a non conditional warning on an error path,
it is not worth inlining.

Outline it.

This reduces the size of vmlinux by almost 4kbytes.
