Yup

Macros or static inlines, it's all the same, there's no point in
changing that. The symbols aren't visible outside this compilation unit
and function calls are, well, inlined.

It doesn't matter anyway and can't be supported on Coding Style grounds,
don't bug me.

I don't think using ll_entry_get() in this way is possible with current
implementation of linker lists. Moreover, there's plenty of code doing
just the same already accepted to U-Boot.

Linker would have to split sections to make this sort of thing possible.
Won't happen.

Right, I'll post v3.
