I understand that it looks like a tradeoff - we inline a couple of small
functions with the cost of uninlining an almost innocent victim.
The complete solution would be probably a splitting ppc_md declaration
out of asm/machdep.h. I wanted to do that, but I'm not a PPC guy, and
just don't know how to split the header correctly.
Anyways, thanks for the ack. Applied on bitmap-for-next.
Thanks,
Yury
