iommu: inline iommu_num_pages
A profile of a network benchmark showed iommu_num_pages rather high up: 0.52% iommu_num_pages Looking at the profile, an integer divide is taking almost all of the time: % : c000000000376ea4 <.iommu_num_pages>: 1.93 : c000000000376ea4: fb e1 ff f8 std r31,-8(r1) 0.00 : c000000000376ea8: f8 21 ff c1 stdu r1,-64(r1) 0.00 : c000000000376eac: 7c 3f 0b 78 mr r31,r1 3.86 : c000000000376eb0: 38 84 ff ff addi r4,r4,-1 0.00 : c000000000376eb4: 38 05 ff ff addi r0,r5,-1 0.00 : c000000000376eb8: 7c 84 2a 14 add r4,r4,r5 46.95 : c000000000376ebc: 7c 00 18 38 and r0,r0,r3 45.66 : c000000000376ec0: 7c 84 02 14 add r4,r4,r0 0.00 : c000000000376ec4: 7c 64 2b 92 divdu r3,r4,r5 0.00 : c000000000376ec8: 38 3f 00 40 addi r1,r31,64 0.00 : c000000000376ecc: eb e1 ff f8 ld r31,-8(r1) 1.61 : c000000000376ed0: 4e 80 00 20 blr Since every caller of iommu_num_pages passes in a constant power of two we can inline this such that the divide is replaced by a shift. The entire function is only a few instructions once optimised, so it is a good candidate for inlining overall.
