Sorry for the confusion. I mean the following:

  - These functions have existing callers that Nipunn claims do not need
    to be explicitly inlined.

  - These functions are being moved to be part of the fsmonitor public
    interface (presumably so that new callers can be added).

...And I was wondering whether you wanted to wait for new callers
before applying these to your tree.

Thanks,
Taylor
