[PATCH v2] PCI: Fix BUILD_BUG_ON usage for old gcc

From: Alex Williamson
Date: Wed Feb 12 2025 - 13:54:20 EST


As reported in the below link, it seems older versions of gcc cannot
determine that the howmany variable is known for all callers. Include
a test so that newer compilers can enforce this sanity check and older
compilers can still work. Add __always_inline attribute to give the
compiler an even better chance to know the inputs.
