If we (for example) have a trans_cfg entry in the PCI IDs table,
but then don't find a full cfg entry for it in the info table,
we fall through to the code that treats the PCI ID table entry
as a full cfg entry. This obviously causes crashes later, e.g.
when trying to build the firmware name string.
Avoid such crashes by using the low bit of the pointer as a tag
for trans_cfg entries (automatically using a macro that checks
the type when assigning) and then checking that before trying to
use the data as a full entry - if it's just a partial entry at
that point, fail.
Since we're adding some macro magic, also check that the type is
in fact either struct iwl_cfg_trans_params or struct iwl_cfg,
failing compilation ("initializer element is not constant") if
it isn't.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
