NAK. Don't do this. Just force inlining. There's absolutely no way we
want to start adding __kprobe to random helper functions like this.
This isn't even about where "__kprobes" exists and whether we want to
include the header file. This is about the fact that hash64 has
absolutely *nothing* to do with kprobes, and we simply shouldn't do
crap like this regardless of whether we need a new #include or not.
