i have a comment for you. the new fiat crypto implementation blows up 
the code very much. inlining all those functions makes the driver 150kb 
bigger (tested on armv7)
but however the cache line size on embedded cpus is very small. often 
just 32 kb, so inlining such big massive code structures may have a 
negative performance effect.
remove these inlines and let the compiler decide, they are static, so 
the compiler will inline them if neccessary
