Hi Jason

I just gave this patch to checkpatch.pl...

total: 6 errors, 763 warnings, 6514 lines checked

It would be good to reduce these numbers.

There is a general preference to not force the compile to
inline. Leave it to decide.

This is going to lead to bugs, coders thinking push() does one thing,
when it actually does something else. I would suggest making these
helper functions, with useful names.

netdev code requires that all local variables are in reverse christmas tree.
