From: Ian Abbott <abbotti@xxxxxxxxx>
Subject: bug: split BUILD_BUG stuff out into <linux/build_bug.h>
Including <linux/bug.h> pulls in a lot of bloat from <asm/bug.h> and
<asm-generic/bug.h> that is not needed to call the BUILD_BUG() family of
macros. Split them out into their own header, <linux/build_bug.h>.
Also correct some checkpatch.pl errors for the BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO() and
BUILD_BUG_ON_NULL() macros by adding parentheses around the bitfield
widths that begin with a minus sign.
