Thanks, perhaps something like this would help: Using inline in .h files is fine and is encouraged in place of macros [reference section 12].The other major use of them in headers is for stub functions when an API implementation has a Kconfig option. The question is, do we really want to start creating such a list, and have people wanting to add to it?
Good point. Maybe it is sufficient to just make the distinction between .c and .h files.
