As the separated function is called about once in a blue moon, it hardly matters. I'd probably rather it wasn't inlined so as to be sure it doesn't clutter the L-1 cache when it isn't needed, but that's the sort of thing I really want to leave to the compiler. Maybe it would be good to stick an 'unlikely' or 'likely' in raid10d to tell the compiler how likely a read error is...
