preempt_count-related functions are quite ubiquitous and may be called
by noinstr ones, introducing unwanted instrumentation. Here is one
example call chain:
irqentry_nmi_enter() # noinstr
lockdep_hardirqs_enabled()
this_cpu_read()
__pcpu_size_call_return()
this_cpu_read_*()
this_cpu_generic_read()
__this_cpu_generic_read_nopreempt()
preempt_disable_notrace()
__preempt_count_inc()
__preempt_count_add()
They are very small, so there are no significant downsides to
force-inlining them.

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.
