Vlastimil Babka 3450a0e5a6 mm/slub: optimize alloc fastpath code layout
With allocation fastpaths no longer divided between two .c files, we
have better inlining, however checking the disassembly of
kmem_cache_alloc() reveals we can do better to make the fastpaths
smaller and move the less common situations out of line or to separate
functions, to reduce instruction cache pressure.

- split memcg pre/post alloc hooks to inlined checks that use likely()
  to assume there will be no objcg handling necessary, and non-inline
  functions doing the actual handling

- add some more likely/unlikely() to pre/post alloc hooks to indicate
  which scenarios should be out of line

- change gfp_allowed_mask handling in slab_post_alloc_hook() so the
  code can be optimized away when kasan/kmsan/kmemleak is configured out

memcg_slab_post_alloc_hook                   464       -    -464

Note that gcc still decided to inline __memcg_pre_alloc_hook(), but the
code is out of line. Forcing noinline did not improve the results. As a
result the fastpaths are shorter and overal code size is reduced.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
