Why are we changing this to an inline function?  The #define is fine,
and how we "normally" do this type of container_of conversion.

I understand the objection of the "no blank line", but this was the
"original" style that we used to create these #defines from the very
beginning of the driver model work a decade ago.  Changing that
muscle-memory is going to be hard for some of us.  Look at
drivers/base/base.h for other examples of this.
