I saw this as well when I tried building with "gcc-7 -Og", and came to the same
conclusion.
Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>
With -Og, there were a couple of other instances of BUILD_BUG_ON() failing
to see a compile-time constant, presumably as it fails to inline any functions
that are not explicitly marked inline.
