SubjectRe: [PATCH] ctype.h: remove duplicate isdigit() helper

Don't all functions defined here shadow builtins in GCC? Why is
`isdigit` unique? Is that because it's a `static inline` definition
vs a function like macro? If that's the case, what's the harm in
converting it to a function like macro if that silences the warning?

TODO(Nick): finish the Clang patch that implements that.

#ifdef

only use `defined` explicitly when there's more than one condition
being checked with logical `&&` or `||`.

GCC only recently gained the `__has_builtin` macro (I filed the bug);
I would like to see something akin to
include/linux/compiler_attributes.h but using `__has_builtin` like
compiler_attributes.h uses `__has_attribute`. That way we avoid
spaghetti like this throughout the kernel.
