My personal opinion is that static inlines in general should always have
a performance justification. If there isn't one, it should be a regular
function. Static inlines leak the abstractions and often make the header
dependencies worse.

Not everyone agrees, of course.

More than anything I was looking for justification on __always_inline
rather than just inline, though.
