That stub want's to be static inline void hv_....

But as the code which uses it is ifdef guarded anyway, you don't need it at
all. We add stub functions to avoid te ifdeffery in the code so the
compiler can optimize them out, but if the ifdef guards are required for
other reasons, then providing the stub for nothing is a pointless exercise.
