110254 bytes saved, shrinking the kernel by a whopping 0.17%. 
Thoughts?
Sounds fine to me.
OK, I'll clean it up a bit, check that each uninlining actually makes
sense and then I'll see how it goes.

I'll merge these 5 patches for 4.3.  That means I'll release them into
linux-next after 4.2 is released.
So you only add for-4.3 code to -next after 4.2 is odd?  Isn't thast the
wrong way around?
Linus will be releasing 4.2 in 1-2 weeks and until then, linux-next is
supposed to contain only 4.2 material.  Once 4.2 is released,
linux-next is open for 4.3 material.
Isn't that off by one?

I.e. shouldn't this be:
I'll merge these 5 patches for 4.4.  That means I'll release them into 
linux-next after 4.2 is released.

[...]

Linus will be releasing 4.2 in 1-2 weeks and until then, linux-next is supposed 
to contain only 4.3 material.  Once 4.2 is released and the 4.3 merge window 
opens, linux-next is open for 4.4 material.
?

Thanks,
