Linus Torvalds 227c3e9eb5 Make use of gcc 9's "asm inline()" (Rasmus Villemoes):
gcc 9+ (and gcc 8.3, 7.5) provides a way to override the otherwise
     crude heuristic that gcc uses to estimate the size of the code
     represented by an asm() statement. From the gcc docs
 
       If you use 'asm inline' instead of just 'asm', then for inlining
       purposes the size of the asm is taken as the minimum size, ignoring
       how many instructions GCC thinks it is.
 
     For compatibility with older compilers, we obviously want a
 
       #if [understands asm inline]
       #define asm_inline asm inline
       #else
       #define asm_inline asm
       #endif
 
     But since we #define the identifier inline to attach some attributes,
     we have to use an alternate spelling of that keyword. gcc provides
     both __inline__ and __inline, and we currently #define both to inline,
     so they all have the same semantics. We have to free up one of
     __inline__ and __inline, and the latter is by far the easiest.
 
     The two x86 changes cause smaller code gen differences than I'd
     expect, but I think we do want the asm_inline thing available sooner
     or later, so this is just to get the ball rolling.

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.
