Hmm. A side-effect of doing it this way is to make pcm.h depend on
core.h, (for substream->pcm->card->number) and there are some files that
include pcm.h but not core.h. E.g. pcsp_lib.c, ctvmem.c, oxygen_lib.c
(and quite a few other possible candidate)

Fix these, or go with the original non-inline version?
