Bear in mind that sysfs is Kconfigurable (CONFIG_SYSFS).  If possible,
newly-added code which doesn't make sense without sysfs should not appear
in a CONFIG_SYSFS=n vmlinux.

pet-peeve: The space after asterisk has no use.

I suposse the inlines are OK, given that we "know" that there's only a
single callsite.  But recent gcc's take care of that automatically.

whitespace went wild there.

Some comments which describe what these do, what they return and why they
return it would be nice.

Ditto.

I don't think the blank line before the EXPORT_SYMBOL() does anything useful.

EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() might be preferred.
