SubjectRe: [PATCH v8 00/12] add support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack

Thanks for catching this. This doesn't appear to be caused by
reserving x18, it looks like SCS itself is causing clang to avoid
inlining these. If I add __noscs to __kern_hyp_va(), clang inlines the
function again. __always_inline also works, as you pointed out.

I can reproduce this with ToT clang as well.

I think switching to __always_inline is the correct solution here.
