commit 94bfc7f3b0 upstream.
While testing randconfig builds on s390, I came across a link failure with
CONFIG_DMA_SHARED_BUFFER disabled:
ERROR: modpost: "dma_buf_put" [drivers/iommu/iommufd/iommufd.ko] undefined!
The problem here is that IS_ERR() is not inlined and dead code elimination
fails as a consequence.
The err.h helpers all turn into a trivial assignment of a bit mask and
should never result in a function call, so force them to always be inline.
This should generally result in better object code aside from avoiding
the link failure above.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
