| Because you do it this way:
| 
| tfrc_rx_hist_swap(&TFRC_RX_HIST_ENTRY(h, 0), &TFRC_RX_HIST_ENTRY(h, 3));
| 
| I checked and at least in this patch series all uses are of this type,
| so why not do it using just the indexes, which would be simpler:
| 
| tfrc_rx_hist_swap(h, 0, 3);
| 
| With this implementation:
| 
| static void tfrc_rx_hist_swap(struct tfrc_rx_hist *h, const int a, const int 
b)
| {
|       const int idx_a = tfrc_rx_hist_index(h, a),
|             int idx_b = tfrc_rx_hist_index(h, b);
|       struct tfrc_rx_hist_entry *tmp = h->ring[idx_a];
| 
|       h->ring[idx_a] = h->ring[idx_b];
|       h->ring[idx_b] = tmp;
| }
| 
Agreed, that is useful in the present case, since then everything uses
inlines. The only suggestion I'd like to make is to use `u8' instead of 
`int' since the indices will have very low values.

There is a related point: you will probably have noticed that loss_interval.c 
also uses macros. I don't know if you are planning to convert these also into 
inlines. I think that there would be less benefit in converting these, since
they are locl to loss_interval.c and mostly serve to improve readability.

As I have at least one other patch to revise (plus another minor one),
I'll rework this according to the above.
