The explicitly inline functions belong to the header files, so move
cpu_to_edmac() and edmac_to_cpu() into the driver header.

While at it, make these functions return 'u32' instead of '__u32'.

Then... ummm... remove the inline keyword?

If it's not used anywhere else, that's the thing to do.
    Results in more code, as I noted in the patch posting that you skipped
    when replying. At least with gcc 4.7.
That's a compiler bug.
    Just tried x86 gcc 5.1.1, same result:

$ size drivers/net/ethernet/renesas/sh_eth.o{~,}
    text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
   23245	   1188	      0	  24433	   5f71	drivers/net/ethernet/renesas/sh_eth.o~
   23259	   1188	      0	  24447	   5f7f	drivers/net/ethernet/renesas/sh_eth.o

i.e. +14 bytes of code. :-O
