Why inline? I try to avoid adding inline wherever possible. inline is 
actually always_inline force_inline 
compiler_we_know_it_better_this_must_be_inlined.
I only use inline in the hot path (kmem_cache_alloc/kmalloc+free) and 
where I know that lots of code will be optimized away due to constant 
propagation. In this case, there is no reason to force the compiler to 
inline the function, thus I wouldn't add an inline.
