rust: num: bounded: Always inline fits_within and from_expr
`from_expr` relies on `build_assert` to infer that the passed expression fits the type's boundaries at build time. That inference can only be successful its code (and that of `fits_within`, which performs the check) is inlined, as a dedicated function would need to work with a variable and cannot verify that property. While inlining happens as expected in most cases, it is not guaranteed. In particular, kernel options that optimize for size like `CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE` can result in `from_expr` not being inlined. Add `#[inline(always)]` attributes to both `fits_within` and `from_expr` to make the compiler inline these functions more aggressively, as it does not make sense to use them non-inlined anyway. [ For reference, the errors look like: ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: rust_build_error >>> referenced by build_assert.rs:83 (rust/kernel/build_assert.rs:83) >>> rust/doctests_kernel_generated.o:(<kernel::num::bounded::Bounded<u8, 1>>::from_expr) in archive vmlinux.a - Miguel ] Fixes: 01e345e ("rust: num: add Bounded integer wrapping type") Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com> Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202511210055.RUsFNku1-lkp@intel.com/ Suggested-by: Gary Guo <gary@garyguo.net> Signed-off-by: Alexandre Courbot <acourbot@nvidia.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251122-bounded_ints_fix-v1-1-1e07589d4955@nvidia.com Signed-off-by: Miguel Ojeda <ojeda@kernel.org>
