We had a bit of discussion about this with Ilya. It seems "static
inline" is a common pattern around the kernel. The coding style
documentation says:
"Generally, inline functions are preferable to macros resembling functions."

So I think this "inline" is correct but I might be missing something.

The uAPI header says:

"
Sends the packet to the psample multicast group with the specified group and
cookie. It is possible to combine this action with the
%OVS_ACTION_ATTR_TRUNC action to limit the size of the sample.
"

Isn't this enough? What else would you add to make it even more clear?
