OK, I will drop the "inline" attribute.

Actually, return value is undefined for SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET
because these functions are not expected to return. Currently, we are updating
r0 (or x0) for all PSCI functions.

Are you suggesting that we update r0 (or x0) only when there are no error
(i.e. ret == 0) ?
