Subject: [PATCH v2 27/27 5.10.y] minmax.h: remove some #defines that are only expanded once

[ Upstream commit 2b97aaf74ed534fb838d09867d09a3ca5d795208 ]

The bodies of __signed_type_use() and __unsigned_type_use() are much the
same size as their names - so put the bodies in the only line that expands
them.

Similarly __signed_type() is defined separately for 64bit and then used
exactly once just below.

Change the test for __signed_type from CONFIG_64BIT to one based on gcc
defined macros so that the code is valid if it gets used outside of a
kernel build.
