[PATCH v2] asm-generic: convert __set_fixmap_offset() to static inline
Posted by Min-Hsun Chang 1 week, 4 days ago
The current macro implementation of __set_fixmap_offset() uses a
hardcoded identifier `________addr` within a statement expression.
This can lead to variable shadowing and potential naming conflicts.

Furthermore, the macro expands its `idx` and `phys` arguments twice.
This double evaluation is dangerous if arguments with side effects
(e.g., i++) are passed to the macro.

Convert the macro to a static inline function as suggested by David.
This improves type safety, avoids shadowing, and ensures each
argument is evaluated exactly once.

Changes in v2:
  - Convert the macro to a static inline function instead of just 
    renaming the local variable (suggested by David Laight).
  - This addresses both variable shadowing and double evaluation 
    issues pointed out during v1 review.
  - Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260307092119.20733-1-chmh0624@gmail.com/
