Can you look into just marking these functions __always_inline?  This should help the compiler change (*handler)(...) into a regular function call.

That looks even better - I see the compiler then turns the indirect call
into a direct one.

Will change to __always_inline instead of static dispatch in the next
version.
Thanks for the pointer.

Feel free to send this separately as it's a self-contained change.

Will do!

Thanks,

Paolo
