Does gcc actually follow the "promise"? If that's the case (and if it's
considered a bug when it doesn't), then we can get what Linus wants by
annotating EVERY function with either __always_inline or noinline.

__always_inline and noinline does work.

I vote for the, get rid of the current inline, rename __always_inline to 
inline, and then remove all non needed inlines from the kernel.

We'll, probably start adding a lot more noinlines.
