The helper does a simple translation from block group flags to index to the btrfs_raid_array table. There's no apparent reason to inline the function, the translation happens usually once per function and is not called in a loop. Making it a proper function saves quite some binary code (x86_64, release config): text data bss dec hex filename 1164011 19253 14912 1198176 124860 pre/btrfs.ko 1161559 19253 14912 1195724 123ecc post/btrfs.ko DELTA: -2451 Also add the const attribute as there are no side effects, this could help compiler to optimize a few things without the function body.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
