rbtree: inline rb_first()
Patch series "rbree: inline rb_first() and rb_last()".
Inline these two small helpers, heavily used in TCP and FQ packet scheduler,
and in many other places.
This reduces kernel text size, and brings an 1.5 % improvement on network
TCP stress test.
This patch (of 2):
This is a very small function, inlining it saves cpu cycles by reducing
register pressure and removing call/ret overhead.
It also reduces vmlinux text size by 744 bytes on a typical x86_64 build.
Before:
size vmlinux
text data bss dec hex filename
34812525 22177365 5685248 62675138 3bc58c2 vmlinux
After:
size vmlinux
text data bss dec hex filename
34811781 22177365 5685248 62674394 3bc55da vmlinux
