Sorry for the error style of last email :(

The code definitely looks buggy, but how do you know your solution is
correct without testing it?
I only test some cases like SR_SHIFT(1, -1),SR_SHIFT(8,1), it seems have a right result.
Oh, maybe I understand it. When 'a' is a negative value like '(int)-1', SR_SHIFT(a, b) will
have some bugs.
I don't like this solution at all. This is basically a really
complicated way of writing "if (b != -1)". Instead of checking for -1,
the better solution is to just stop passing -1. If you review that
file, every time it uses "-1" that's either dead code or a bug...
Agreed,some are dead codes which can be removed, but what should we do with the
following error codes like this one?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
How about this solution? If the condition is false, just skip it.

Maybe should print some error log here.
I'm not sure about the safety of skipping SET_UNIPERIF_REG when the condition is false,

Would it be better to make the result of undefined shift equal to zero?
