Really it was never needed, but now would be a great time to remove it as it doubly does not make any sense here. Oh wait, no, this whole thing can just be removed entirely, right? There already is a dev_to_sdio_func macro defined, so the #ifndef check catches that so your change doesn't actually modify any code that is used. So this should all be removed, not changed to an inline function. thanks, greg k-h
