Subject: [PATCH net-next 3/4] net: ipa: introduce ipa_assert()

Create a new macro ipa_assert() to verify that a condition is true.
This produces a build-time error if the condition can be evaluated
at build time; otherwise __ipa_assert_runtime() is called (described
below).

Another macro, ipa_assert_always() verifies that an expression
yields true at runtime, and if it does not, reports an error
message.

When IPA validation is enabled, __ipa_assert_runtime() becomes a
call to ipa_assert_always(), resulting in runtime verification of
the asserted condition.  Otherwise __ipa_assert_runtime() has no
effect, so such ipa_assert() calls are effectively ignored.

IPA assertion errors will be reported using the IPA device if
possible.
