Hi Rong,
Known issue. LLVM 13 cut over to the new pass manager (NPM) which has changed some of the inlining heuristics. I would probably recommend cutting over to the "release/12.x" branch for now, which should be more up to date but also stable.
Additionally, Arnd sent a fix for this particular warning here: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210225130153.1956990-1-arnd@kernel.org/
Cheers, Nathan
