ntfs: extern vs inline?

Hello Anton.
I was looking around for bare inline uses and found this in
fs/ntfs/inode.[ch]:
$ git grep -w ntfs_new_extent_inode
fs/ntfs/inode.c:inline ntfs_inode *ntfs_new_extent_inode(struct super_block *sb,
fs/ntfs/inode.h:extern ntfs_inode *ntfs_new_extent_inode(struct super_block *sb,
fs/ntfs/mft.c: ni = ntfs_new_extent_inode(base_ni->vol->sb, mft_no);
It seems odd for the function declaration to be extern but the definition
to be inline.
mft.c doesn't include inode.c, so the compiler shouldn't be able to inline it.
Likely the inline use in inode.c should be removed.
