When the compiler decides not to inline the Chunky-to-Planar core
functions, the build fails with:

    c2p_planar.c:(.text+0xd6): undefined reference to `c2p_unsupported'
    c2p_planar.c:(.text+0x1dc): undefined reference to `c2p_unsupported'
    c2p_iplan2.c:(.text+0xc4): undefined reference to `c2p_unsupported'
    c2p_iplan2.c:(.text+0x150): undefined reference to `c2p_unsupported'

Fix this by marking the functions __always_inline.

While this could be triggered before by manually enabling both
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING and CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE, it was exposed
in the m68k defconfig by commit ac7c3e4ff401b304 ("compiler: enable
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING forcibly").

Fixes: 9012d011660ea5cf ("compiler: allow all arches to enable CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING")

This is a fix for v5.4-rc1.

Can you please apply this for v5.4?
This is one of the 4 remaining build regressions, compared to v5.3.

Thanks!

v2:
  - Add Reviewed-by,
  - Fix Fixes,
  - Add more explanation.
