It's probably fine, IMHO. I mean, I think we agree that the rarely used
inlines should not sit in a header included by half of the kernel (not
an exaggeration). But IMHO a better fix would be to move out whatever
cpumask.h xarray.h and other common headers depend on to a cut-down
version rather than making your helpers not inline.

So I think all we need for now is for people to ack the respective
patches? Looks like cio and ntfs and missing acks, so are some of 
the bitops core patches.
