That only applies to inline functions with external linkage, and only
for modifiable objects. The same is true of objects with thread storage
duration. Such functions are also prohibited from containing a reference
to an identifier with internal linkage. (C standard 6.7.4p3)

A key difference between C and C++ that is relevant to this thread is
that, in C++, 'inline' is an ignorable hint that inline substitution
should be performed. In C, it's an ignorable hint that "that calls to
the function be as fast as possible.", with the method where by that
might be achieved being unspecified.
