Message-ID: <20251017090519.46992-8-farbere at amazon.com>
From: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko at linux.intel.com>
[ Upstream commit 5e57418a2031cd5e1863efdf3d7447a16a368172 ]
It appears that compiler_types.h already have an implementation of the
__unconst_integer_typeof() called __unqual_scalar_typeof(). Use it
instead of the copy.
