I knew.

Our goal is to make it work for IPV6=m, so why inline is not a solution
while putting it into a static library is? udp6_csum_init() is not a big
function, so I see no reason why it can't be inlined.

And AFAIK, udp6_csum_init() can't fit into any of these obj-y files in
net/ipv6/.

Am I still missing anything?

Thanks.
