The document has below at the end of 'target (OPTIONS)' section
On the x86, the inliner does not inline a function that has
different target options than the caller, unless the callee
has a subset of the target options of the caller. For example
a function declared with 'target("sse3")' can inline a
function with 'target("sse2")', since '-msse3' implies
'-msse2'.
Do we need to move this part to a new section and combine with -march and
-mtune rule description to the new subsubsection?

If so, I'd like to add the always_inline change on arch to current
patch and leave the
document change alone in the next patch.
