Add C++ keywords to avoid errors in compiling with c++ compiler.
This also renames class member of PciDeviceInfo to q_class.

Please also extend scripts/checkpatch.pl.  Otherwise it is very likely
that C++ keywords will be introduced again in the future.  Most people
will not build the VSS code and therefore checkpatch.pl needs to ensure
that patches with C++ keywords will not be accepted.

I think it would be difficult to identify problematic C++ keywords usage
from patches because headers can legally contain C++ keywords and
checkpatch.pl doesn't know where it should be used.
Do you have any good ideas?

And, at least for QAPI, scripts/qapi.py automatically detects the
keywords to add q_ prefix for them (like `q_class' in this patch).

Thanks,
Tomoki Sekiyama

We can ignore false warnings for 0.1% of patches (the ones that touch
VSS C++ code).  But for the remaining 99.9% of patches it's worth
guarding against VSS bitrot.

Remember not many people will compile it and therefore they won't notice
when they break it.  I really think it's worth putting some effort in
now so VSS doesn't periodically break.

checkpatch.pl is a hacky sort of C parser.  It already checks for a
bunch of similar things and it knows about comments, macros, and
strings.  It does not perform #include expansion, so there is no risk of
including system headers that have C++ code.

Since you're respinning anyway, perhaps consider adding these lovely
"alternative representations" from just one paragraph below (they are
reserved and "shall not be used otherwise" than the operators they stand
for):

and	bitand	compl	not_eq	or_eq	xor_eq
and_eq	bitor	not	or	xor

although probably noone would use these as identifiers or otherwise...
So just mentioning it for completeness.

Thanks for your comment.

I'm still wondering because it actually causes a lot false positives
(not just 0.1%...) even for the patches not touching VSS.

For example, keyword 'class' is used in qdev-monitor.c, qom/object.c,
and a lot of files in hw/*/*.c and include/{hw,qom}/*.h, but
they have nothing to do with qemu-ga. Qemu-ga is just a part of whole
qemu source code, so I don't want to warn around the other parts.

Thanks,
Tomoki Sekiyama

OK, I will try adding these keywords in next submit.

And I appreciate that.  Purging some other language's keywords feels
like pointless churn to me.

I see what you guys are saying now.  You want to protect only qemu-ga.
I was proposing protecting the entire codebase so we never get into a
situation where changing a header breaks qemu-ga.

It's not that hard to use "klass" instead of "class", but if it's
unpopular then we'll just have to live with VSS breakage.
