[PATCH 5.12 219/296] linux/bits.h: fix compilation error with GENMASK

[ Upstream commit f747e6667ebb2ffb8133486c9cd19800d72b0d98 ]

GENMASK() has an input check which uses __builtin_choose_expr() to
enable a compile time sanity check of its inputs if they are known at
compile time.

However, it turns out that __builtin_constant_p() does not always return
a compile time constant [0]. It was thought this problem was fixed with
gcc 4.9 [1], but apparently this is not the case [2].

Switch to use __is_constexpr() instead which always returns a compile time
constant, regardless of its inputs.
