Trying to compile drivers/scsi/ips.c with gcc 3.4 and
  # define inline         __inline__ __attribute__((always_inline))
results in the following error:

The patch below removes all inlines from ips.c. As a side effect, this
showed that 3 formerly inlined functions are completely unused which are
also removed in the patch.

An alternative approach to removing the inlines would be to keep all
inlines that are _really_ required and reorder the functions in the file
accordingly.
