[PATCH 1/4] bitops: Fix shift overflow in GENMASK macros

From: Steffen Trumtrar <s.trumtrar at pengutronix.de>

Based on the original patch for linux:

	commit 00b4d9a14125f1e51874def2b9de6092e007412d
	Author: Maxime COQUELIN <maxime.coquelin at st.com>
	Date:   Thu Nov 6 10:54:19 2014

	On some 32 bits architectures, including x86, GENMASK(31, 0) returns 0
	instead of the expected ~0UL.

	This is the same on some 64 bits architectures with GENMASK_ULL(63, 0).

	This is due to an overflow in the shift operand, 1 << 32 for GENMASK,
	1 << 64 for GENMASK_ULL.
