Subject: [PATCH] XFS; xfs_trans_add_item() - don't assign in ASSERT() when
 compare is intended

It looks to me like the two ASSERT()s in xfs_trans_add_item() really
want to do a compare (==) rather than assignment (=).
This patch changes it from the former to the latter.

I must admit though, that I don't know this code well and have only
compile tested this change. But if assignment is really intended it
really seems strange to do it as part of an ASSERT...
