That will never happen, because the two are not interchangeable [ignoring the churn it would involve]. BUILD_BUG_ON can eat expressions which static_assert won't (e.g. BUILD_BUG_ON(cnt - label1 != OFFSET1);, where cnt and label1 are definitely not ICEs). Which is one of the reasons the kernel cannot be built without optimizations.
