Hi Thomas

No special reason to avoid using '#define'. I think both are OK. 
But inline function can provide more type checks for the input/output parameters. Also inline functions with even only one line code can be seen a lot in that file.

So I assume that it is not mandatory to use '#define' instead.

Regards,
Helin

Why not defining it in one line (as Neil suggested)?
#define ether_addr_equal(_addr1, _addr2) (!compare_ether_addr(addr1, addr2))
