[BUG] FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS/Demo/CORTEX_MPU_M3_MPS2_QEMU_GCC demo build failure #628
Description
Describe the bug
Building the full demo FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS/Demo/CORTEX_MPU_M3_MPS2_QEMU_GCC with make FULL_DEMO=1 with latest kernel fails with following compilation error:
/tmp/tmp-test/FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS/Source/event_groups.c: In function 'vEventGroupDelete':
/tmp/tmp-test/FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS/Source/event_groups.c:59:46: error: conversion from 'long unsigned int' to 'TickType_t' {aka 'const short unsigned int'} changes value from '33554432' to '0' [-Werror=overflow]

Target
- Development board: M3 MPS2 QEMU
- Instruction Set Architecture: Armv7-M
- IDE and version: None
- Toolchain and version: arm-none-eabi-gcc (Arm GNU Toolchain 12.2.Rel1 (Build arm-12.24)) 12.2.1 20221205
Host
- Host OS: Ubuntu
- Version: 20.04
To Reproduce
- git clone git@github.com:FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS.git --recurse-submodules
- cd FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS/Source
- git fetch -all
- git checkout main
- cd ../Demo/CORTEX_MPU_M3_MPS2_QEMU_GCC
- make FULL_DEMO=1
Expected behavior
Build succeeds without failure

Additional context
Digging further into this, the build fails because the TickType_t gets typedefed to uint16_t instead of uint32_t at https://github.com/FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS-Kernel/blob/main/portable/GCC/ARM_CM3_MPU/portmacro.h#L60 even though configUSE_16_BIT_TICKS is set to 0.
It seems like the backward compatibility support for configUSE_16_BIT_TICKS added as part of adding support for 64-bit events #597 isn't working as expected. The PR introduces a new macro configTICK_TYPE_WIDTH_IN_BITS which is undefined when portmacro.h is included in FreeRTOS.h. The macro gets defined further down in FreeRTOS.h to support backward compatibility for configUSE_16_BIT_TICKS macro. Since the macro configTICK_TYPE_WIDTH_IN_BITS isn't undefined when portmacro.h is included, configTICK_TYPE_WIDTH_IN_BITS is evaluated as 0 in the expression which causes the equality to succeed and TickType_t to typedef'ed to uint16_t. The undefined macros can be checked by enabling -Wundef after https://github.com/FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS/blob/main/FreeRTOS/Demo/CORTEX_MPU_M3_MPS2_QEMU_GCC/Makefile#L45.
