commit 0c9f3a65c5eb7fe1fc611a22eb8a8b71ea865998 upstream.

The rtl8712 driver has an 'extern inline' function that contains an
'if', which causes lots of warnings with CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES
overriding the definition of 'if':

drivers/staging/rtl8712/ieee80211.h:759:229: warning: '______f' is static but declared in inline function 'ieee80211_get_hdrlen' which is not static [enabled by default]

This changes the driver to use 'static inline' instead, which happens
to be the correct annotation anyway.
