The __builtin_constant_p() is introduced to avoid having the compiler generate a conditional branch and two different code paths in case nb_elem is a run-time variable. In particular, this matters if nb_elems is run-time variable and varies between 1 and some larger value. I should have mention this in the commit message. A very slight performance improvement. It also makes the code better match the comment, imo. Zero cost for const one enqueues, but no impact non-compile-time-constant-length enqueues.
