This brings another 3x improvement in the size of the expansion
and build speed.

This still has a nested call to __cmp(), which makes the
resulting expression bigger than necessary.
The three typeof(x) should be x/y/z, right? Using __auto_type
would avoid the bug and also remove one more variable expansion.
Using another temporary variable, plus the use of __auto_type
brings the example line from xen/setup.c down 750KB to 530KB,
and the compile speed from 0.5s to 0.34s.
#define __cmp_once3(op, x, y, z, uniq) ({ \
__auto_type __x_##uniq = (x); \
__auto_type __y_##uniq = (y); \
__auto_type __z_##uniq = (z); \
__auto_type __xy##uniq = __cmp(op, __x_##uniq, __y_##uniq); \
__cmp(op, __xy_##uniq, __z_##uniq); })
The __auto_type change can also be applied to the other typeof()
in this file.
