You sent a patch, you have to explain why it is needed.

Your changelog is absolutely not giving a compelling reason.

TCP stack is already complex, no need to add yet another obfuscation
unless there is a strong reason.

Not sure that I understand you point. What’s the reason for that code
not need to be inlined in the callers?

inlined in the callers, ( and btw inline in .c files are discouraged
these days )
