i asked about this some time ago and i'm curious -- is there a
simple standard for the use of "inline" in kernel code. as of now,
there are still uses of all of inline, __inline__ and __inline, as
well as __always_inline and, now, in "staging", we have the ugly
spectre of:
#define INLINE __inline
in a few places.
is there a simple rule for what inline definition and usage would be
in a perfect world? thanks.

"grep inline include/linux/kernel.h" looks like a good guidance.
See also the C99 standard and maybe
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Alternate-Keywords.html .

PS: drivers/staging/ is probably the only place that is worth a
normalization. There is always bugzilla.kernel.org for those with time to spare.
