locking/rwsem: Add __always_inline annotation to __down_write_common() and inlined callers
Apparently despite it being marked inline, the compiler may not inline __down_write_common() which makes it difficult to identify the cause of lock contention, as the wchan of the blocked function will always be listed as __down_write_common(). So add __always_inline annotation to the common function (as well as the inlined helper callers) to force it to be inlined so a more useful blocking function will be listed (via wchan). This mirrors commit 92cc5d00a431 ("locking/rwsem: Add __always_inline annotation to __down_read_common() and inlined callers") which did the same for __down_read_common. I sort of worry that I'm playing wack-a-mole here, and talking with compiler people, they tell me inline means nothing, which makes me want to cry a little. So I'm wondering if we need to replace all the inlines with __always_inline, or remove them because either we mean something by it, or not.
