Note that by somebody's "brillant" idea "inline" is a macro that expands to "inline __attribute__((always_inline))". That said, "inline" in a function prototype doesn't make much sense anyway. In this case simply removing the qualifier will let code use the implementation from arch/mips/au1000/common/prom.c. As a side note it's quite amazing how duplicate copies of a function get scattered throughout the tree... Maciej
