Currently the implementation of "Guard" methods are basically wrappers
around rcu's function within kernel. Building the kernel with llvm
18.1.8 on x86_64 machine will generate the following symbols:

$ nm vmlinux | grep ' _R'.*Guard | rustfilt
ffffffff817b6c90 T <kernel::sync::rcu::Guard>::new
ffffffff817b6cb0 T <kernel::sync::rcu::Guard>::unlock
ffffffff817b6cd0 T <kernel::sync::rcu::Guard as core::ops::drop::Drop>::drop
ffffffff817b6c90 T <kernel::sync::rcu::Guard as core::default::Default>::default

These Rust symbols are basically wrappers around functions
"rcu_read_lock" and "rcu_read_unlock". Marking them as inline can
reduce the generation of these symbols, and saves the size of code
generation for 132 bytes.

$ ./scripts/bloat-o-meter vmlinux_old vmlinux_new
(Output is demangled for readability)
