[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v4 18/21] compiler.h: RFC - s/__LINE__/__COUNTER__/ in __UNIQUE_ID fallback

[Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com>]

We currently have 3 defns for __UNIQUE_ID(); gcc and clang are using
__COUNTER__ for real uniqueness, 3rd just uses __LINE__, which should
fail on this (and harder to avoid situations):

  DECLARE_FOO(); DECLARE_FOO();

Its 2023, can we haz a no-fallback __UNIQUE_ID ?

NOTE:

This also changes __UNIQUE_ID_ to _kaUID_.  Ive been getting
lkp-reports of collisions on names which should be unique; this
shouldnt happen on gcc & clang, but does on some older ones, on some
platforms, on some allyes & rand-configs.  Like this:

mips64-linux-ld:
drivers/gpu/drm/display/drm_dp_helper.o:(__dyndbg_class_users+0x0):
multiple definition of `__UNIQUE_ID_ddebug_class_user405';
drivers/gpu/drm/drm_gem_shmem_helper.o:(__dyndbg_class_users+0x0):
first defined here

Like above, the collision reports appear to always be 3-digit
counters, which look like line-numbers.  Changing to _kaUID_ in this
defn should make it more obvious (in *.i file) when a fallback has
happened.  To be clear, I havent seen it yet.  Nor have I seen the
multiple-defn problem above since adding this patch.

Lets see what lkp-robot says about this.
