I'm not sure you should just *remove* them, that might very well be
valid and what you need here, I'm just saying it looks odd since you
usually expect masks to, well, not really mask *everything*?

No, if they're static they cannot be used from other files, but if
they're declared and used elsewhere they can't really be inline ...

You could declare them static inline in ahb.h I guess, instead.
