Problem with inlines for linux-2.2.1-ac2, and egcs-2.93.03 19990129

[Richard Ketchersid]

While trying to build the kernel several symbols needed by network.a fail
to get defined due to inlining difficulties ? Here is an example, notice
the problem with skb_put:

=======================================================================
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O3
-fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -fno-strength-reduce -m486 -DCPU=486

=========================================================================

In the end when trying to link the kernel you get: packet.o = af_packet.o

net/network.a(netlink.o)(.text+0xac4): more undefined references to
`skb_put' follow
net/network.a(packet.o): In function `packet_rcv_spkt':
packet.o(.text+0x37): undefined reference to `skb_push'
net/network.a(packet.o): In function `packet_sendmsg_spkt':
packet.o(.text+0x1fd): undefined reference to `skb_put'
net/network.a(packet.o): In function `packet_rcv':
packet.o(.text+0x303): undefined reference to `skb_push'
net/network.a(packet.o): In function `packet_sendmsg':
packet.o(.text+0x501): undefined reference to `skb_put'
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1
