x86/lib: Inline csum_ipv6_magic()
Inline this small helper. It has been observed to consume up
to 0.75%, which is significant for such a small function.
This should reduce register pressure, as saddr and daddr are often
back to back in memory.
For instance code inlined in tcp6_gro_receive() will look like:
55a: 48 03 73 28 add 0x28(%rbx),%rsi
55e: 8b 43 70 mov 0x70(%rbx),%eax
561: 29 f8 sub %edi,%eax
563: 0f c8 bswap %eax
565: 89 c0 mov %eax,%eax
567: 48 05 00 06 00 00 add $0x600,%rax
56d: 48 03 46 08 add 0x8(%rsi),%rax
571: 48 13 46 10 adc 0x10(%rsi),%rax
575: 48 13 46 18 adc 0x18(%rsi),%rax
579: 48 13 46 20 adc 0x20(%rsi),%rax
57d: 48 83 d0 00 adc $0x0,%rax
581: 48 89 c6 mov %rax,%rsi
584: 48 c1 ee 20 shr $0x20,%rsi
588: 01 f0 add %esi,%eax
58a: 83 d0 00 adc $0x0,%eax
58d: 89 c6 mov %eax,%esi
58f: 66 31 c0 xor %ax,%ax
Surprisingly, this inlining does not seem to bloat kernel text size.
It at least two cases[1], it either has no effect or results in a
slightly smaller kernel.
