The static_assert introduced in 6bab69c650 ("build_bug.h: add wrapper
for _Static_assert") has been supported by compilers for a long time
(gcc 4.6, clang 3.0) and can be used in header files. We don't need to
put BUILD_BUG_ON to random functions but rather keep it next to the
definition.
The exception here is the UAPI header btrfs_tree.h that could be
potentially included by userspace code and the static assert is not
defined (nor used in any other header).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
