linux/container_of.h: switch to static_assert
_Static_assert() is evaluated already in the compiler's frontend, and gives a somehat more to-the-point error, compared to the BUILD_BUG_ON macro, which only fires after the optimizer has had a chance to eliminate calls to functions marked with __attribute__((error)). In theory, this might make builds a tiny bit faster. There's also a little less gunk in the error message emitted: lib/sort.c: In function `foo': include/linux/build_bug.h:78:41: error: static assertion failed: "pointer type mismatch in container_of()" 78 | #define __static_assert(expr, msg, ...) _Static_assert(expr, msg) compared to lib/sort.c: In function `foo': include/linux/compiler_types.h:322:38: error: call to `__compiletime_assert_2' declared with attribute error: pointer type mismatch in container_of() 322 | _compiletime_assert(condition, msg, __compiletime_assert_, __COUNTER__) While at it, fix the copy-pasto in container_of_safe().
