The code, #undef CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING, is not working as expected.

It is because <linux/compiler_types.h> is parsed before vclock_gettime.c
since 28128c61e08e ("kconfig.h: Include compiler types to avoid missed
struct attributes").

Since then, <linux/compiler_types.h> is included really early by
using the '-include' option. So, you cannot negate the decision of
<linux/compiler_types.h> in this way.

You can confirm it by checking the pre-processed code, like this:

  $ make arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/vclock_gettime.i

There is no difference with/without CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE.

It it about two years since 28128c61e08e. Nobody has reported a
problem (or, nobody has even noticed the fact that this code is not
working).

It is ugly and unreliable to attempt to undefine a CONFIG option from
C files, and anyway the inlining heuristic is up to the compiler.

Just remove the broken code.

Nit: "It it" -> "it is"
