So it sounds like my understanding is out of date. When the first
Ethernet PHY driver was being merged, Rust could not access inline C
functions. The binding had to replicate the functionality. But you are
saying that Rust can now make use of inline C code, but not actually
inline it? It results in a function call?

What this feature does it actually allows inline C functions to be
inline? So it is just an optimisation?
