then why inline?

I'm not a compiler expert by any measure, but poking around I'm pretty
sure the inline keyword in this context is useless.  See for example:
http://www.cs.nyu.edu/~xiaojian/bookmark/c_programming/Inline_Functions.htm

So I suggest either make it a normal stand-alone function or keep it as
duplicate static inlines in the header files if you're adamant about
this being inlined.
