[PATCH] drm/tiny: pixpaper: Prevent inlining of send helpers to reduce stack usage

[LiangCheng Wang <zaq14760@gmail.com>]

Clang reports that pixpaper_panel_hw_init() exceeds the 8 KB stack
frame limit:

    drivers/gpu/drm/tiny/pixpaper.c:579:12: warning:
      stack frame size (20024) exceeds limit (8192)
      in 'pixpaper_panel_hw_init'

This warning occurs because the compiler aggressively inlines
pixpaper_send_cmd() and pixpaper_send_data() into
pixpaper_panel_hw_init(), which inflates the estimated stack usage.

Mark these two helper functions as 'noinline' to prevent inlining.
This significantly reduces the reported stack usage without changing
runtime behavior.

When building with Clang and frame size warnings enabled
(-Wframe-larger-than=8192), the compiler reports that
pixpaper_panel_hw_init() consumes over 20 KB of stack space:

    drivers/gpu/drm/tiny/pixpaper.c:579:12: warning:
      stack frame size (20024) exceeds limit (8192)
      in 'pixpaper_panel_hw_init'

This happens because Clang aggressively inlines
pixpaper_send_cmd() and pixpaper_send_data() into
pixpaper_panel_hw_init(), causing the calculated stack usage
to balloon far beyond the warning threshold.

The fix is straightforward: mark these two helper functions as
'noinline' to prevent inlining. This reduces the reported stack
usage to within normal limits without changing runtime behavior.
