Add BUILD_BUG_ON_NOT_POWER_OF_2() When code relies on a constant being a power of 2: #define FOO 512 /* must be a power of 2 */ it would be nice to be able to do: BUILD_BUG_ON(!is_power_of_2(FOO)); However applying an inline function does not result in a compile-time constant that can be used with BUILD_BUG_ON(), so trying that gives results in: error: bit-field '<anonymous>' width not an integer constant As suggested by akpm, rather than monkeying around with is_power_of_2() and risking gcc warts about constant expressions, just create a macro BUILD_BUG_ON_NOT_POWER_OF_2() to encapsulate this common requirement.
