[C PATCH] Fix up diagnostics (PR c/25801)


Here's a patch that tidies up diagnostics given when there's
an arithmetic on pointer to an incomplete type.  Firstly, we ought not
to say "unknown structure" when the type is not a structure; secondly,
we shouldn't report identical error twice.
(It might make sense to instead "increment/decrement of" just say
"arithmetic on", but I'm not changing that now.)

Regtested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, bootstrapped on
powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu, ok for trunk?

2014-04-18  Marek Polacek  <polacek@redhat.com>

	PR c/25801
	* c-typeck.c (c_size_in_bytes): Don't call error.
	(pointer_diff): Remove comment.
	(build_unary_op): Improve error messages.

	* gcc.dg/pr25801.c: New test.
