Subject: [PATCH 3/4] workqueue: add a BUILD_BUG_ON() to check the size of struct pool_workqueue
Date: Mon,  1 Jun 2020 08:44:41 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200601084442.8284-4-laijs@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200601084442.8284-1-laijs@linux.alibaba.com>

Currently, the size of struct pool_workqueue is smaller than the
smellest requirement (1 << WORK_STRUCT_FLAG_BITS). When the size
of struct pool_workqueue is increasing in future development and
exceed the smellest requirement a little, it will be a big waste
due to alignment.

Add a check in case we don't skimp enough in future.
