This patch adds a new static assertion macro that can be used to check
the offsets in structures that overlay register sets at compile time. It
uses the _Static_assert() declaration from the new ISO C11 standard,
which is supported (even without -std=c11) by GCC after version 4.6.
(There is supposedly also support in clang, although I haven't tried
it... let's deal with compiler issues when/if they turn up.)
I've added it to all structures for our current ARM SoCs for now, and I
think every new register overlay we add going forward should use them
(at least for the last member, but feel free to add more if you think
it's useful).
BUG=None
TEST=Compiled for Snow, Pit and Nyan.
