Re: Status of CONFIG_FORCED_INLINING?

- every static function in a header file must be __always_inline

Why? Why does it matter whether a function is defined in a .h file or
a .c file? Can't the compiler decide better than we can whether
something should be inlined or not?

Your argument seems to imply that we should never use the inline
keyword at all.
