commit a7a9f439b8380b930a47a0b17b217f87458844f6
Author: Rusty Russell <rusty@...tcorp.com.au>

    BUILD_BUG_ON: make it handle more cases
    
    BUILD_BUG_ON used to use the optimizer to do code elimination or fail
    at link time; it was changed to first the size of a negative array (a
    nicer compile time error), then (in
    8c87df457cb58fe75b9b893007917cf8095660a0) to a bitfield.
    
    bitfields: needs a literal constant at parse time, and can't be put under
    	"if (__builtin_constant_p(x))" for example.
    negative array: can handle anything, but if the compiler can't tell it's
    	a constant, silently has no effect.
    link time: breaks link if the compiler can't determine the value, but the
    	linker output is not usually as informative as a compiler error.
    
    If we use the negative-array-size method *and* the link time trick,
    we get the ability to use BUILD_BUG_ON() under __builtin_constant_p()
    branches, and maximal ability for the compiler to detect errors at
    build time.

commit 7f6d9e683ab862e7b102d65766c131bc6136e6ca
Author: Rusty Russell <rusty@...tcorp.com.au>
Date:   Fri Dec 18 12:32:57 2009 -0600

    Remove MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON
    
    Now BUILD_BUG_ON() can handle optimizable constants, we don't need
    MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON any more.

commit 10b483dd7905f59062f7aa2986a1d4c7f5129dc3
Author: Rusty Russell <rusty@...tcorp.com.au>

    kernel.h: move BUILD_BUG_ON et al inside __KERNEL__
    
    Recent warning caused by change in BUILD_BUG_ON:
    
    	usr/include/linux/kernel.h:53: userspace cannot call function or variable defined in the kernel
    
    Macros no longer accessible to userspace:
    
    	BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO, BUILD_BUG_ON_NULL, BUILD_BUG_ON,
    	__FUNCTION__, NUMA_BUILD, REBUILD_DUE_TO_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD.
    
    (The last two were in #ifdef CONFIG anyway, so already useless).
    
    Also, avoid silly re-test of __KERNEL__ immediately below.
