The "int ret;" declaration is on the wrong line, so is the curly bracket.

This function could be declared as inline now...

The build bot complained about this one, but I do not understand why.
Could it be because you do not have declared __get_task_ioprio() as "extern" ?

Also, to reduce refactoring changes in this patch, you could introduce
__get_task_ioprio() and make the above change in patch 2. No ?
