GCC already checks for arguments that are marked with the "nonstring"[1]

this compile-time checking also for the kernel's primary string copying
function, strscpy().
Note that Clang has neither "nonstring" nor __builtin_has_attribute().

any way to avoid the usual caveat of repeating macro argument?
a variant of BUILD_BUG that is checking argument and otherwise pasting
it would nail it, but I didn't pondered how to implement such
