When building the kernel with Clang with defconfig and CONFIG_64BIT
disabled, vmlinux fails to link because of the BUILD_BUG in
_print_param.

ld: drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_params.o: in function `i915_params_dump':
i915_params.c:(.text+0x56): undefined reference to
`__compiletime_assert_191'

This function is semantically invalid unless the code is first inlined
then constant folded, which doesn't work for Clang because semantic
analysis happens before optimization/inlining. Converting this function
to a macro avoids this problem and allows Clang to properly remove the
BUILD_BUG during optimization.

The output of 'objdump -D' is identically before and after this change
for GCC regardless of if CONFIG_64BIT is set and allows Clang to link
the kernel successfully with or without CONFIG_64BIT set.
