Remove a useless ifdef __NR_bpf as requested by Wang Nan.

Inline one-line static functions as it was in the bpf_sys.h file.

However, it is better to merge this patch with commit
702498a1426bc95b6f49f9c5fba616110cbd3947.
I don't know where this commit ID is.  Since this patch is targetting
net-next I would expect a commit ID with not context to be in that
tree.  Please always specify where the commit ID you mention is.

It is "bpf: Remove bpf_sys.h from selftests" in net-next.


Futhermore, commits in net-next are permanent so it is not possible
afterwards to "merge this patch with commit X".

I understand. Maintainers sometime reset
his/her head to an early version and amend
the commit to make the history clean, but
clearly net-next never do this.

Thank you.
