If there are only a few prefix offsets then the code can be optimised to explicitly detect them - rather than decoding arbitrary hex values. After all it only needs to decode the values that actually appear. The code also needs a compile-time assert that the result is constant (__buitin_constant_p() will do the check. But you can't use _Static_assert() to report the error because that requires an 'integer constant expression'.
