compiler: allow all arches to enable CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING
Commit 60a3cdd06394 ("x86: add optimized inlining") introduced CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING, but it has been available only for x86. The idea is obviously arch-agnostic. This commit moves the config entry from arch/x86/Kconfig.debug to lib/Kconfig.debug so that all architectures can benefit from it. This can make a huge difference in kernel image size especially when CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE is enabled. For example, I got 3.5% smaller arm64 kernel for v5.1-rc1. dec file 18983424 arch/arm64/boot/Image.before 18321920 arch/arm64/boot/Image.after This also slightly improves the "Kernel hacking" Kconfig menu as e61aca5158a8 ("Merge branch 'kconfig-diet' from Dave Hansen') suggested; this config option would be a good fit in the "compiler option" menu.

-config OPTIMIZE_INLINING
- bool "Allow gcc to uninline functions marked 'inline'"
- ---help---
- This option determines if the kernel forces gcc to inline the functions
- developers have marked 'inline'. Doing so takes away freedom from gcc to
- do what it thinks is best, which is desirable for the gcc 3.x series of
- compilers. The gcc 4.x series have a rewritten inlining algorithm and
- enabling this option will generate a smaller kernel there. Hopefully
- this algorithm is so good that allowing gcc 4.x and above to make the
- decision will become the default in the future. Until then this option
- is there to test gcc for this.
