Hello,

This fails to compile on some platforms/compilers since n is a long and
16 is an int, expanding to:

r = __builtin_choose_expr(
	((!!(sizeof((typeof(n) *)1 == (typeof(16) *)1))) &&
	 ((sizeof(int) ==
	   sizeof(*(8 ? ((void *)((long)(n)*0l)) : (int *)8))) &&
	  (sizeof(int) ==
	   sizeof(*(8 ? ((void *)((long)(16) * 0l)) :
			(int *)8))))),
	((n) < (16) ? (n) : (16)), ({
		typeof(n) __UNIQUE_ID___x0 = (n);
		typeof(16) __UNIQUE_ID___y1 = (16);
		((__UNIQUE_ID___x0) < (__UNIQUE_ID___y1) ?
			 (__UNIQUE_ID___x0) :
			 (__UNIQUE_ID___y1));
	}));

Here's the full build failure as found by snowpatch:

You should use min_t(long, n, 16) instead.
