Improve objpool (used heavily in kretprobe hot path) performance with two improvements: - inlining performance critical objpool_push()/objpool_pop() operations; - avoiding re-calculating relatively expensive nr_possible_cpus().
These opportunities were found when benchmarking and profiling kprobes and kretprobes with BPF-based benchmarks. See individual patches for details and results.
