  25  * Takes a pointer x and transform it so we can use it to access members
  26  * without a function call. Here an example:
  27  *
  28  *    #define GET_SIZE(x) LTTNG_REF(x)->size
  29  *
  30  *    struct { int size; } s;
  31  *
  32  *    printf("size : %d\n", GET_SIZE(&s));
  33  *
  34  * For this example we can't use something like this for compatibility purpose
  35  * since this will fail:
  36  *
  37  *    #define GET_SIZE(x) x->size;
  38  *
  39  * This is mostly use for the compatibility layer of lttng-tools. See
  40  * poll/epoll for a good example. Since x can be on the stack or allocated
  41  * memory using malloc(), we must use generic accessors for compat in order to
  42  * *not* use a function to access members and not the variable name.
