since these are all static functions, does declaring them inline
actually help or are they inlined anyway by the compiler?

By disassembling the code, static function calls translate to "bl XXX", that means they are not inline.
Inline is not always working, maybe __rte_always_inline is required here?

I think always_inline is only to force inline when no optimiziation is
done? https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Inline.html
I don't know if there's a way to really force the compiler to inline
it or if it's better anyway to trust the compiler.
It doesn't hurt to have the functions declared inline except that it
clutters code a bit, but I don't have strong feelings against leaving this
patch as is. Leaving it to Maxime, so

I need to consider the use of __rte_always_inline generally in
virtio_rxtx.c.
In this specific case, inline seems enough.
