What if we just use two possible decelerations? One of static structs and one
for regular ones.
struct hash_table {
size_t bits;
struct hlist_head buckets[];
};
#define DEFINE_HASHTABLE(name, bits) \
union { \
struct hash_table name; \
struct { \
size_t bits; \
struct hlist_head buckets[1 << bits]; \
} __name; \
}
#define DEFINE_STATIC_HASHTABLE(name, bit) \
static struct hash_table name = { .bits = bit, \
.buckets = { [0 ... (bit - 1)] = HLIST_HEAD_INIT } }
