Looking at generated code for handle_signal32() shows calls to a
function called __unsafe_save_user_regs.constprop.0 while user access
is open.

And that __unsafe_save_user_regs.constprop.0 function has two nops at
the begining, allowing it to be traced, which is unexpected during
user access open window.

The solution could be to mark __unsafe_save_user_regs() no trace, but
to be on the safe side the most efficient is to flag it __always_inline
as already done for function __unsafe_restore_general_regs(). The
function is relatively small and only called twice, so the size
increase will remain in the noise.

Do the same with save_tm_user_regs_unsafe() as it may suffer the
same issue.

Fixes: ef75e7318294 ("powerpc/signal32: Transform save_user_regs() and 
save_tm_user_regs() in 'unsafe' version")
