This is in drivers/misc, where the rules might be different. But in
netdev, we don't like inline functions in .c files. It is better to
let the compiler decide.

With my networking hat on, this one standard out.

The name REFCLK is sometimes used as for the clock signals for RGMII?

Might be worth a dev_err(), since it is unusual.
