Move the inline function from the header and export it instead.
For the checkpatch.pl issues:
WARNING: Prefer 'unsigned int' to bare use of 'unsigned'
CHECK: Avoid crashing the kernel - try using WARN_ON & recovery code
rather than BUG() or BUG_ON()
The 'unsigned' vars can safely be changed to 'unsigned int'.
The BUG_ON() is overkill. All the drivers that call this function pass
'register_index' values that are valid. Just check the 'register_index'
and return 0 if it's not valid.
