[PATCH v2 2/6] compiler.h: Introduce TYPEOF_UNQUAL() macro

From: Uros Bizjak <hidden>
Date: 2024-12-05 15:43:01
Also in: linux-arch, linux-bcachefs, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: sparse checker, the rest · Maintainers: Chris Li, Linus Torvalds

Define TYPEOF_UNQUAL() to use __typeof_unqual__() as typeof operator
when available, to return unqualified type of the expression.

Current version of sparse doesn't know anything about __typeof_unqual__()
operator. Avoid the usage of __typeof_unqual__() when sparse checking
is active to prevent sparse errors with unknowing keyword.
