And burden the driver code with function calls ISO in/out instructions, at

And exactly how do you think the IDE accessors in the file get called ?
Tried looking at how in*()/out*() are defined on x86?
It's already making function calls, without the benefit of inlining and
I'm afraid you're wrong here.
