It still complains about the following macros where parenthesis are
not needed.
ERROR: Macros with complex values should be enclosed in parenthesis
#156: FILE: staging/android/pmem.c:156:
+#define PMEM_IS_FREE(id, index) !(pmem[id].bitmap[index].allocated)
Let's just make the check look for an operator with a low
precedence.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations#Programming_languages
Otherwise the submitters are going to change it to:
#define PMEM_IS_FREE(id, index) (!(pmem[id].bitmap[index].allocated))
That has two pairs of unneeded paranthesis and we run the risk of
reprogramming the kernel in lisp, by mistake.
