This was necessary to work around the poor decision-making of the clang, gcc, and C language standard authors, who collectively came up with four mutually incompatible ways to document a lack of branching in a code flow. Having received ZERO HELP porting this to userspace, Eric and I foolishly dumped that crap into linux.h, which was a poor decision because we keep forgetting that linux.h is exported as a userspace header. This has now caused downstream regressions in Debian[1] and will probably cause more problems in the other distros. Move it to platform_defs.h since that's not shipped publicly and leave a warning to anyone else who dare modify linux.h.
