[PATCH 4/5] mm/slab: noinline __ac_put_obj()

[Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com>]

Our intention of __ac_put_obj() is that it doesn't affect anything if
sk_memalloc_socks() is disabled. But, because __ac_put_obj() is too small,
compiler inline it to ac_put_obj() and affect code size of free path.
This patch add noinline keyword for __ac_put_obj() not to distrupt normal
free path at all.

<Before>
nm -S slab-orig.o |
	grep -e "t cache_alloc_refill" -e "T kfree" -e "T kmem_cache_free"

0000000000001e80 00000000000002f5 t cache_alloc_refill
0000000000001230 0000000000000258 T kfree
0000000000000690 000000000000024c T kmem_cache_free

<After>
nm -S slab-patched.o |
	grep -e "t cache_alloc_refill" -e "T kfree" -e "T kmem_cache_free"

0000000000001e00 00000000000002e5 t cache_alloc_refill
00000000000011e0 0000000000000228 T kfree
0000000000000670 0000000000000216 T kmem_cache_free

cache_alloc_refill: 0x2f5->0x2e5
kfree: 0x256->0x228
kmem_cache_free: 0x24c->0x216

code size of each function is reduced slightly.
