Linus and Kees, I also understood that I should not make and use the
macro that performs assignment and checking at the same time, and I will
drop it and update it.
Kees, the overflows_type() macro had several updates as input from you
and the community, and there is an advantage when moving to Linux common.
What are your thoughts on continuing to add the overflows_type() macro
to overflows.h?
Br,

Understood. I've been trying to help the drm folks walk a line between
having a bunch of custom macros hidden away in the drm includes and
building up generalized versions that are actually helpful beyond drm.
But I can see that it doesn't help to have a "do two things at the same
time" macro for the assignment checking.
