[PATCH v4 1/5] kernel: Add helper macros for loop unrolling

This helps in easily initializing blocks of code (e.g. static calls and
keys).

UNROLL(N, MACRO, __VA_ARGS__) calls MACRO N times with the first
argument as the index of the iteration. This allows string pasting to
create unique tokens for variable names, function calls etc.

As an example:

	#include <linux/unroll.h>

	#define MACRO(N, a, b)            \
		int add_##N(int a, int b) \
		{                         \
			return a + b + N; \
		}

	UNROLL(2, MACRO, x, y)

expands to:

	int add_0(int x, int y)
	{
		return x + y + 0;
	}

	int add_1(int x, int y)
	{
		return x + y + 1;
	}
