net: Force inlining of checksum functions in net/checksum.h
commit 5486f5bf790b5c664913076c3194b8f916a5c7ad upstream.
All functions defined as static inline in net/checksum.h are
meant to be inlined for performance reason.
But since commit ac7c3e4ff4 ("compiler: enable
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING forcibly") the compiler is allowed to
uninline functions when it wants.
Fair enough in the general case, but for tiny performance critical
checksum helpers that's counter-productive.
The problem mainly arises when selecting CONFIG_CC_OPTIMISE_FOR_SIZE,
Those helpers being 'static inline' in header files you suddenly find
them duplicated many times in the resulting vmlinux.
Here is a typical exemple when building powerpc pmac32_defconfig
with CONFIG_CC_OPTIMISE_FOR_SIZE. csum_sub() appears 4 times:

c04a23cc: 7c 84 20 f8 not r4,r4

Restore the expected behaviour by using __always_inline for all
functions defined in net/checksum.h
vmlinux size is even reduced by 256 bytes with this patch:
text data bss dec hex filename
6980022 2515362 194384 9689768 93daa8 vmlinux.before
6979862 2515266 194384 9689512 93d9a8 vmlinux.now
