Very good, thank you! For 5.8 we probably still want the ifdef
__CHECKER__, otherwise we might break too many existing workflows. But
hopefully we can remove it again at some point. At the latest when the
kernel deprecates GCC 4.8 support, because then we can just remove the
whole unoptimized __unqual_scalar_typeof() definition.
Thanks,
