[PATCH] compiler: Don't perform compiletime_assert with -O0.

[Joe Stringer]

Recent changes[0] to make use of __compiletime_assert() from
container_of() increased the usage of this macro, allowing developers to
notice type conflicts in usage of container_of() at compile time.
However, the implementation of __compiletime_assert relies on compiler
optimizations to report an error. This means that if a developer uses
"-O0" with any code that performs container_of(), the compiler will
always report an error regardless of whether there is an actual problem
in the code.

This patch disables compile_time_assert when optimizations are disabled
to allow such code to compile with CFLAGS="-O0".

Example compilation failure:

./include/linux/compiler.h:547:38: error: call to â__compiletime_assert_94â declared with attribute error: pointer type mismatch in container_of()
  _compiletime_assert(condition, msg, __compiletime_assert_, __LINE__)
                                      ^
