[PATCH v3 1/3] bits: introduce fixed-type genmasks

[Lucas De Marchi]

From: Yury Norov <yury.norov@xxxxxxxxx>

Generalize __GENMASK() to support different types, and implement
fixed-types versions of GENMASK() based on it. The fixed-type version
allows more strict checks to the min/max values accepted, which is
useful for defining registers like implemented by i915 and xe drivers
with their REG_GENMASK*() macros.

The strict checks rely on shift-count-overflow compiler check to
fail the build if a number outside of the range allowed is passed.
Example:

	#define FOO_MASK GENMASK_U32(33, 4)

will generate a warning like:

	../include/linux/bits.h:41:31: error: left shift count >= width of type [-Werror=shift-count-overflow]
	   41 |          (((t)~0ULL - ((t)(1) << (l)) + 1) & \
	      |                               ^~
