Is there a nicer way of doing that? Yes, I know it's ugly. I searched for a swab24 function. The file fs/jfs/endian24.h defines such a function. Including this file in fs/cramfs/inode.c would be even more ugly than the code above. What about moving this to a header file in include/linux/byteorder?

Just removing those three takes the sparc64 > fs/cramfs/inode.o from 6856 bytes of text down to 5668, which is rather a > large difference. OK. I'll remove the inline keywords in my copies aswell.
