Move cma_sysfs counter hooks from cma_sysfs.c to inline functions in
cma.h. These one-liner functions are only used once each, but the
compiler currently can't inline them because they are defined in one
object and used in another. Letting the compiler inline these
functions lowers the footprint and runtime cost of the sysfs interface
to CMA stats even more.

Applies on top of my previous patch due to a context change, but
otherwise independent thereof.
On second thought, we might as well move these functions to cma.c as
this is the only place where they are called, so it's hard to justify
why they should be in a header file. Opinions?

Opinions? I think that should also be nice. In the case, I think it can drop 'inline' keyword to let the compiler makes good decisions with its nice knowledge. Also the similar event accounting code such as count_vm_event() and trace_*() calls can be moved into the new function together. If do so, the function name may also better to be updated to represent it is not only for cma sysfs but general events accounting. Just my two cents. Thanks, SJ [...]

I have prepared an alternative patch which moves the code to cma.c, I'll post it shortly. I also experimented with your idea of consolidating accounting. I'm not totally sold to the idea though, structurally it's nicer, but it implies scattering the ifdef SYSFS across all 3 accounting functions, which not everybody may like. I'm really not sure which I prefer. I'll post it and let the maintainers decide. -- Jean Delvare SUSE L3 Support
