These macros are a clever trick to determine a count of the number of
LSMs that are enabled in the config to ascertain the maximum number of
static calls that need to be configured per LSM hook.
Without this one would need to generate static calls for the total
number of LSMs in the kernel (even if they are not compiled) times the
number of LSM hooks which ends up being quite wasteful.

Patch series "kernel.h: Split out a couple of macros to args.h", v4.
There are macros in kernel.h that can be used outside of that header.
Split them to args.h and replace open coded variants.
This patch (of 4):
kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time.
The COUNT_ARGS() and CONCATENATE() macros may be used in some places
without need of the full kernel.h dependency train with it.
Here is the attempt on cleaning it up by splitting out these macros().
While at it, include new header where it's being used.
