sched, lockdep: inline double_unlock_balance()
We have a test case which measures the variation in the amount of time
needed to perform a fixed amount of work on the preempt_rt kernel. We
started seeing deterioration in it's performance recently. The test
should never take more than 10 microseconds, but we started 5-10%
failure rate.
Using elimination method, we traced the problem to commit
1b12bbc747
(lockdep: re-annotate
scheduler runqueues).
When LOCKDEP is disabled, this patch only adds an additional function
call to double_unlock_balance(). Hence I inlined double_unlock_balance()
and the problem went away. Here is a patch to make this change.
