[Xen-devel] [PATCH] libs/gnttab: introduce BUILD_BUG_ON

[Wei Liu <wei.liu2@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The implementation is taken from libxc.

I could have put it in a header file accessible to all libraries under
libs but this construct is only relevant to xengnttab library at the
moment so it's put under gnttab/private.h. It can be easily moved to
a common place when other libraries under libs require it.

This patch is necessary to unblock Paulina on her gnttab copy work.
