Hello everyone, this is a patchset to remove inline marking of exported functions. Patchset is motivated by https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/10/545 (af3b56289)
I run some tests and inspect the binaries. (You can find the tests here: https://bitbucket.org/evdenis/tests/src) And it seems (at least on my configuration) that EXPORT_SYMBOL completely revokes inline directive. GCC can handle this, but other compilers may be confused by these two directives. Anyway, you can't inline function that you expect not to be available for modules with incompatible license and to be available for the rest.
