Not the end of the World then.

This is not a good way of doing it, with #ifdef's mangling an if()
statement. It really should be avoided. Any problem having
MLX5_CAP_GEN() return 0 when ESWITCH is not enabled?

The linker takes care of this - if you want them inlined, you should
explicitly inline them. Otherwise there is no cost here.
Please move them over in this case.
