GCC considers the number of statements in inlined assembly blocks,
according to new-lines and semicolons, as an indication to the cost of
the block in time and space. This data is distorted by the kernel code,
which puts information in alternative sections. As a result, the
compiler may perform incorrect inlining and branch optimizations.

The solution is to set an assembly macro and call it from the inlined
assembly block. As a result GCC considers the inline assembly block as
a single instruction.

This patch allows to inline functions such as __get_seccomp_filter().
Interestingly, this allows more aggressive inlining while reducing the
kernel size.

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
18140970 10225412 2957312 31323694 1ddf62e ./vmlinux before
18140140 10225284 2957312 31322736 1ddf270 ./vmlinux after (-958)

Static text symbols:
Before:	40302
After:	40286	(-16)

Functions such as kref_get(), free_user(), fuse_file_get() now get
inlined.
