Ok, this time for a 'make allyesconfig' build, top 100, for the list of
all 6021 inline functions that were expanded more than once in this 281
MB vmlinux image download the 93 KB files at:

http://oops.merseine.nu:81/acme/vmlinux.allyesconfig.inlines.txt.gz

totsz = Total size of all expansions for this inline function
nrexp = Number of times this function was expanded (inlined)
avgsz = Average expansion size
nrsrc = number of source files where this function was expanded

Some cases are bogus due to namespace colisions, I'll work on mangling
the function name with the file where it was defined, but most should
be ok.

- Arnaldo

name totsz / nrexp = avgsz nrsrc
