[PATCH] [v2] bcache: hide variable-sized types from uapi header check

[Arnd Bergmann <arnd@kernel.org>]

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

The headers_check helper complains about a GNU extension in
one of the exported headers:

linux/bcache.h:354:2: warning: field '' with variable sized type 'union jset::(anonymous at ./usr/include/linux/bcache.h:354:2)' not at the end of a struct or class is a GNU extension [-Wgnu-variable-sized-type-not-at-end]
        BKEY_PADDED(uuid_bucket);
        ^
linux/bcache.h:134:2: note: expanded from macro 'BKEY_PADDED'
        union { struct bkey key; __u64 key ## _pad[BKEY_PAD]; }
        ^

Address this by enclosing the GNU extensions in an #ifdef: Since the
header check is done with --std=c90, this shuts up the warning and makes
it possible to include the header file C90 user space applications, but
allows applications built with --std=gnu89 or higher to use those
parts.

Another alternative would be to exclude this header from the check,
but the GNU extension check seems more sensible.

Fixes: 81ab4190ac17 ("bcache: Pull on disk data structures out into a separate header")

v2: use __STRICT_ANSI__ check instead of __KERNEL__.

I think this version is better than the first, let me know if that
works for you.
