/**
* check_type - issue a warning or build failure if type is not correct.
* @expr: the expression whose type we should check (not evaluated).
* @type: the exact type we expect the expression to be.
*
* This macro is usually used within other macros to try to ensure that a macro
* argument is of the expected type. No type promotion of the expression is
* done: an unsigned int is not the same as an int!
*
* check_type() always evaluates to 0.
*
* If your compiler does not support typeof, then the best we can do is fail
* to compile if the sizes of the types are unequal (a less complete check).
*
* Example:
* // They should always pass a 64-bit value to _set_some_value!
* #define set_some_value(expr) \
* _set_some_value((check_type((expr), uint64_t), (expr)))
