x86/asm: Always inline atomics

During some code analysis I realized that atomic_add(), atomic_sub()
and friends are not necessarily inlined AND that each function
is defined multiple times:

	atomic_inc:          544 duplicates
	atomic_dec:          215 duplicates
	atomic_dec_and_test: 107 duplicates
	atomic64_inc:         38 duplicates
	[...]

Each definition is exact equally, e.g.:

	ffffffff813171b8 <atomic_add>:
	55         push   %rbp
	48 89 e5   mov    %rsp,%rbp
	f0 01 3e   lock add %edi,(%rsi)
	5d         pop    %rbp
	c3         retq

In turn each definition has one or more callsites (sure):

	ffffffff81317c78: e8 3b f5 ff ff  callq  ffffffff813171b8 <atomic_add> [...]
	ffffffff8131a062: e8 51 d1 ff ff  callq  ffffffff813171b8 <atomic_add> [...]
	ffffffff8131a190: e8 23 d0 ff ff  callq  ffffffff813171b8 <atomic_add> [...]

The other way around would be to remove the static linkage - but
I prefer an enforced inlining here.

	Before:
	  text     data	  bss      dec       hex     filename
	  81467393 19874720 20168704 121510817 73e1ba1 vmlinux.orig

	After:
	  text     data     bss      dec       hex     filename
	  81461323 19874720 20168704 121504747 73e03eb vmlinux.inlined

Yes, the inlining here makes the kernel even smaller! ;)

Linus further observed:

	"I have this memory of having seen that before - the size
	 heuristics for gcc getting confused by inlining.
	 [...]

	 It might be a good idea to mark things that are basically just
	 wrappers around a single (or a couple of) asm instruction to be
	 always_inline."
