With inline
    text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  361914	  14698	 232344	 608956	  94abc	./u-boot

without inline
    text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  361922	  14698	 232368	 608988	  94adc	./u-boot

But the problem is that I can see a lot of warnings that this function is unused.
u-boot/include/asm/bitops.h:322:22: warning: 'ext2_find_next_zero_bit' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]

FYI: I have just grepped source tree and I see that the same solution is used by blackfin/mips and powerpc.

$ grep -rn "ext2_find_next_zero_bit" arch/ | grep static
arch/microblaze/include/asm/bitops.h:322:static inline unsigned long ext2_find_next_zero_bit(void *addr,
arch/blackfin/include/asm/bitops.h:324:static __inline__ unsigned long ext2_find_next_zero_bit(void *addr,
arch/mips/include/asm/bitops.h:830:static __inline__ unsigned long ext2_find_next_zero_bit(void *addr, unsigned long size, unsigned long offset)
arch/powerpc/include/asm/bitops.h:344:static __inline__ unsigned long ext2_find_next_zero_bit(void *addr,

Thanks,
Michal
