[ Upstream commit e81859fe64ad42dccefe134d1696e0635f78d763 ] Apparently despite it being marked inline, the compiler may not inline __down_write_common() which makes it difficult to identify the cause of lock contention, as the wchan of the blocked function will always be listed as __down_write_common(). So add __always_inline annotation to the common function (as well as the inlined helper callers) to force it to be inlined so a more useful blocking function will be listed (via wchan). This mirrors commit92cc5d00a4("locking/rwsem: Add __always_inline annotation to __down_read_common() and inlined callers") which did the same for __down_read_common. I sort of worry that I'm playing wack-a-mole here, and talking with compiler people, they tell me inline means nothing, which makes me want to cry a little. So I'm wondering if we need to replace all the inlines with __always_inline, or remove them because either we mean something by it, or not.

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 Restructured Text 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.
