net/mac80211/debugfs.c: prevent build failure with CONFIG_UBSAN=y
BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1745266 commit 68920c97 upstream. With upcoming CONFIG_UBSAN the following BUILD_BUG_ON in net/mac80211/debugfs.c starts to trigger: BUILD_BUG_ON(hw_flag_names[NUM_IEEE80211_HW_FLAGS] != (void *)0x1); It seems, that compiler instrumentation causes some code deoptimizations. Because of that GCC is not being able to resolve condition in BUILD_BUG_ON() at compile time. We could make size of hw_flag_names array unspecified and replace the condition in BUILD_BUG_ON() with following: ARRAY_SIZE(hw_flag_names) != NUM_IEEE80211_HW_FLAGS That will have the same effect as before (adding new flag without updating array will trigger build failure) except it doesn't fail with CONFIG_UBSAN. As a bonus this patch slightly decreases size of hw_flag_names array. Signed-off-by: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@virtuozzo.com> Cc: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Cc: "David S.
