If you didn't notice that bug is for C++, not C. GCC and Clang accept
flexible array members in unions only in C++. cmpxchg() from linuxkpi
doesn't seem to be used anywhere in the tree. If the macro didn't expand
there's nothing to produce an error for.

Anyway, I confirm r329447 fixed graphics/drm-next-kmod build.
