[ Upstream commit b280bb27a9f7c91ddab730e1ad91a9c18a051f41 ]
Since the test for signed values being non-negative only relies on
__builtion_constant_p() (not is_constexpr()) it can use the 'ux' variable
instead of the caller supplied expression. This means that the #define
parameters are only expanded twice. Once in the code and once quoted in
the error message.
