Namespace the __bitwise and __force macros so that they don't conflict
with the ones from linux/types.h:

  In file included from ../src/l2_packet/l2_packet_linux.c:15:0:
  hostap/src/utils/common.h:438:0: warning: "__bitwise" redefined

   #define __bitwise __bitwise__

I think we can just #ifdef them because it's a compatible, if not
exactly identical, definition?

Yes, it's compatible. However, I think there could still be conflicts
adding an #ifdef because in the kernel header those macros are not
guarded and so it could happen that a file includes "common.h" and
then includes another local header file that uses <linux/types.h>,
causing a redefinition warning.

I guess I'd say you should include it the right way around - after all,
there's already precedent for this (check the git history of these
definitions)

Okay then. Maybe we can just:

 #ifdef __CHECKER__
 #define __force __attribute__((force))
 #undef __bitwise
 #define __bitwise __attribute__((bitwise))
 #else
 #define __force
+#undef __bitwise
 #define __bitwise
 #endif

as in the __CHECKER__ case?

'__force' is not actually defined in uapi headers and doesn't require
this workaround.
