We already force-inline page_fixed_fake_head(), page_is_fake_head() and
PageTail(), however the compiler might decide that _compound_head() is not
worthy to be inlined, because of page_fixed_fake_head().
The result is that, for example, PageAnonExclusive() now might involve a
function call when checking PageHuge(), which performs a
page_folio()->_compound_head() call. This can lead to a slight regression
of the stress-ng.clone benchmark.
This is not super-urgent to fix, but always inlining _compound_head()
seems like the obvious thing to do for this primitive, similar to the
other ones.
This change restores the slight regression and a compilation with
CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE_OPTIMIZE_VMEMMAP=y shows no relevant bloat [2]:

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
