[PATCH: 1/1] sh4: avoid spurious gcc warning
From: Michael.Karcher
Date: Sat Jan 21 2023 - 19:17:02 EST
Prevent sizeof-pointer-div warning in SH4 intc macros
Gcc warns about the pattern sizeof(void*)/sizeof(void), as it looks like
the abuse of a pattern to calculate the array size. This pattern appears
in the unevaluated part of the ternary operator in _INTC_ARRAY if the
parameter is NULL.
The replacement uses an alternate approach to return 0 in case of NULL
which does not generate the pattern sizeof(void*)/sizeof(void), but still
emits the warning if _INTC_ARRAY is called with a nonarray parameter.
This patch is required for successful compilation with -Werror enabled.
The idea to use _Generic for type distinction is taken from Comment #7
in https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=108483 by Jakub Jelinek
