linux/must_be.h: Add must_be() to improve readability of BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO()
Historically, BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO() has been hard to read. __must_be_array() is based on BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO(), and unlike BUILD_BUG_ON_*(), it has a pretty readable name. Let's generalize it with this kind of usage: #define __must_be_array(a) must_be(__is_array(a)) So next step is to create macros of the kind: __is_array(a) Signed-off-by: Alejandro Colomar <alx.manpages@gmail.com>
