Because hash_64() is called from the get_kprobe() inside int3 handler, kernel causes int3 recursion and crashes if kprobes user puts a probe on it.
Usually hash_64() is inlined into caller function, but in some cases, it has instances by gcc's interprocedural constant propagation. This patch uses __always_inline instead of inline to prevent gcc from doing such things.
