compiler.h: fix error in BUILD_BUG_ON() reporting

Browse Source 
compiletime_assert() uses __LINE__ to create a unique function name.  This
means that if you have more than one BUILD_BUG_ON() in the same source
line (which can happen if they appear e.g.  in a macro), then the error
message from the compiler might output the wrong condition.

For this source file:

	#include <linux/build_bug.h>

	#define macro() \
		BUILD_BUG_ON(1); \
		BUILD_BUG_ON(0);

	void foo()
	{
		macro();
	}

gcc would output:

./include/linux/compiler.h:350:38: error: call to `__compiletime_assert_9' declared with attribute error: BUILD_BUG_ON failed: 0
  _compiletime_assert(condition, msg, __compiletime_assert_, __LINE__)

However, it was not the BUILD_BUG_ON(0) that failed, so it should say 1
instead of 0. With this patch, we use __COUNTER__ instead of __LINE__, so
each BUILD_BUG_ON() gets a different function name and the correct
condition is printed:

./include/linux/compiler.h:350:38: error: call to `__compiletime_assert_0' declared with attribute error: BUILD_BUG_ON failed: 1
  _compiletime_assert(condition, msg, __compiletime_assert_, __COUNTER__)
