Note that we already do have this pattern, as seen by:

  git grep -2  __builtin_choose_expr | grep -2 __builtin_constant_p

which show drivers/pinctrl/intel/pinctrl-intel.h, so the pattern
already exists current kernels and _works_ - it apparently just
doesn't work in slightly more complicated cases.

It's one reason why I wondered if simplifying the expression to have
just that single __builtin_constant_p() might not end up working..
