__same_type() instead of __builtin_types_compatible_p() would look nicer,
but I don't think that all compilers support that:

	include/linux/compiler-intel.h:/* Intel ECC compiler doesn't support __builtin_types_compatible_p() */

So it would effectively disable VM_BUG_ONs on Intel's compiler.


Thanks,
