Perhaps one #ifdef and two definitions of functions?

I don't think it will make a difference. I'll have to move
#ifdef around the caller of hidma_free_msis instead which
I think is uglier.

The hidma_write_msi_msg function gets called only when
CONFIG_GENERIC_MSI_IRQ_DOMAIN is defined. If I don't put
this around the function definition, I get unused function
warning from the compiler. This is the reason why preprocessor
definition is outside of the function definition.

I am talking about something like below:

#ifdef UGLY_DEFINE
myfunc_a()
{
}

myfunc_b()
{
}
#else
static inline myfunc_a() {}
static inline myfunc_b() {}
#endif


There is another way as well, namely use of IS_ENABLED(), IS_BUILTIN()
macros (I don't remember how exactly second one is spelt).


This was my initial approach. I was asked to remove the stub functions. So, I did it.
