All users of aarch64_insn_gen_hint() (e.g. aarch64_insn_gen_nop()) pass a constant argument and generate a constant value. Some of those users are noinstr code (e.g. for alternatives patching). For noinstr code it is necessary to either inline these functions or to ensure the out-of-line versions are noinstr. Since in all cases these are generating a constant, make them __always_inline. There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
