Yeah, that was sloppy wording on my part. Let's say I meant useful
instead of used. My point is that inline is quite useless (in a C
file), the compiler will do its thing anyway. Rhetorical question:
what is the point of having both noinline and __always_inline?
Because plain old inline is overridden by the compiler, just like
the register keyword.

Could we? Maybe for specific compilers and architectures, but
probably not for all cases. And the future is in the cards etc. And
we don't actually know even for current compilers. Also, quoting
Documentation/process/4.Coding
More recent compilers take an increasingly active role in deciding
whether a given function should actually be inlined or not. So the
liberal placement of "inline" keywords may not just be excessive; it
could also be irrelevant.

Yes :-)
