[PATCH 03/26] typecheck.h: avoid local variables in typecheck() macro

[Arnd Bergmann]

With KASAN enabled, the typecheck macro leads to some serious stack memory,
as seen in the rt2xxx drivers:

drivers/net/wireless/ralink/rt2x00/rt2800lib.c: In function 'rt2800_init_registers':
drivers/net/wireless/ralink/rt2x00/rt2800lib.c:5068:1: error: the frame size of 23768 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
drivers/net/wireless/ralink/rt2x00/rt2800lib.c: In function 'rt2800_config_txpower_rt3593.isra.1':
drivers/net/wireless/ralink/rt2x00/rt2800lib.c:4126:1: error: the frame size of 14184 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
drivers/net/wireless/ralink/rt2x00/rt2800lib.c: In function 'rt2800_config_channel_rf3053.isra.5':
drivers/net/wireless/ralink/rt2x00/rt2800lib.c:2585:1: error: the frame size of 7632 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

If we express the macro in a way that avoids the local variables, this goes
away and the stacks are comparable to building without KASAN.
