ARRAY_SIZE(x) is defined as (sizeof(x) / sizeof((x)[0])). Works when x
is of array type (variable length array is fine). Screws up when x is
of *pointer* type.
C99 6.5.3.4:
The sizeof operator yields the size (in bytes) of its operand, which
may be an expression or the parenthesized name of a type. The size
is determined from the type of the operand. The result is an
integer. If the type of the operand is a variable length array
type, the operand is evaluated; otherwise, the operand is not
evaluated and the result is an integer constant.
