[PATCH] net: sparx5: fix bitmask check

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd at arndb.de>

Older compilers such as gcc-5.5 produce a warning in this driver
when ifh_encode_bitfield() is not getting inlined:

drivers/net/ethernet/microchip/sparx5/sparx5_netdev.c: In function 'ifh_encode_bitfield':
include/linux/compiler_types.h:333:38: error: call to '__compiletime_assert_545' declared with attribute error: Unsupported width, must be <= 40
drivers/net/ethernet/microchip/sparx5/sparx5_netdev.c:28:2: note: in expansion of macro 'compiletime_assert'
  compiletime_assert(width <= 40, "Unsupported width, must be <= 40");
  ^

Mark the function as __always_inline to make the check work correctly
on all compilers. To make this also work on 32-bit architectures, change
the GENMASK() to GENMASK_ULL().

Fixes: f3cad2611a77 ("net: sparx5: add hostmode with phylink support")
