Here it is as a macro without inline helpers.

If I remove the
Implemented as a macro, so that __builtin_constant_p works even at -O0.
and following empty line in comment, so that line numbers match, then in
the whole libc.so the difference is on x86_64 just:
-   3fa9d:	40 3a 33             	cmp    (%rbx),%sil
+   3fa9d:	40 38 33             	cmp    %sil,(%rbx)
in a single spot.  Of course with the added two lines there are various
differences, because __assert_fail arguments differ (wasn't doing non-debug
build).
