René Rebe d84e47edf1 drm/nouveau: fix circular dep oops from vendored i2c encoder
Since commit a73583107a ("drm/nouveau: vendor in drm_encoder_slave API")
nouveau appears to be broken for all dispnv04 GPUs (before NV50). Depending
on the kernel version, either having no display output and hanging in
kernel for a long time, or even oopsing in the cleanup path like:

This is caused by the i2c encoder modules vendored into nouveau/ now
depending on the equally vendored nouveau_i2c_encoder_destroy
function. Trying to auto-load this modules hangs on nouveau
initialization until timeout, and nouveau continues without i2c video
encoders.

Fix by avoiding nouveau dependency by __always_inlining that helper
functions into those i2c video encoder modules.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
