`WITHOUT_PEDANTIC(expr)` disables `-Wpedantic` for `expr`, but switches
back to the previous diagnostic settings afterwards. This helps defining
macros that are not strictly ISO compliant without having to drop the
`-Wpedantic` flag entirely.
`DECLARE_CONSTANT(identifier, const_expr)` declares an anonymous `enum`
constant named `identifier` and assigns it the value `const_expr`. Here,
`const_expr` has to be a compile time constant, but is not needed to be
an integer constant expression. It basically is a tool to magically
convert a non-integer constant expression into a integer constant
expression.
Calculate the size of the element based on the array given, not based
on the element pointer.
The element might as well be given as a `void *` via a callback.
In that case, if the user forgets to cast the `void *` to the array
element type, the calculation returns false values.
Disarm this foot gun by basing the element size off the given array.
container_of() is safe to use in regard to alignment requirements, when used
correctly. Using `uintptr_t` instead of `char *` for applying the offset results
in -Wcast-align not complaining.
IS_ACTIVE allows to evaluate macro definitions in non-preprocessor
expressions. It takes a macro that may be defined to 1 or not defined at
all and expands to 1 or 0 respectively.
