BUG_ON() is a macro very very similar to assert(), and it's a really bad
idea in general to put statements with side-effects inside such a construct

The patch below fixes this for the drivers/xen tree.
I'd like to see this applied, to both Xen and the vanilla kernel;
however, it should be noted that no version of Linux or Xen compiles
BUG_ON() away without evaluating its arguments.
but it should be able to ;)
yeah I agree it's not a hard bug per se, but something that should be done
anyway ;)
