These BUILD_BUG_ON()s exist to cover the curious absence of a diagnostic for code which looks like:
uint32_t foo[1] = { 1, 2, 3 }; However, GCC 12 at least does now warn for this: foo.c:1:24: error: excess elements in array initializer [-Werror] 884 | uint32_t foo[1] = { 1, 2, 3 }; | ^ foo.c:1:24: note: (near initialization for 'foo') and has found other array length issues which we want to fix. Drop the cross check now tools can spot the problem case directly.
