[ Upstream commit 6da9f775175e516fc7229ceaa9b54f8f56aa7924 ]
When debugging options are turned on, the rcu_read_lock() function might not be inlined. This results in lockdep's print_lock() function printing "rcu_read_lock+0x0/0x70" instead of rcu_read_lock()'s caller. For example:
[ 10.579995] ============================= [ 10.584033] WARNING: suspicious RCU usage [ 10.588074] 4.18.0.memcg_v2+ #1 Not tainted [ 10.593162] ----------------------------- [ 10.597203] include/linux/rcupdate.h:281 Illegal context switch in RCU read-side critical section!

These "rcu_read_lock+0x0/0x70" strings are not providing any useful information. This commit therefore forces inlining of the rcu_read_lock() function so that rcu_read_lock()'s caller is instead shown.
