The problem is (and actually with the (end-1, start) above that it might
generate a really bad code on some CPUs, so I really, really prefer the way
when _at least_ one of the parameters is constant.
That said, using

	GENMASK_ULL(end - 1, 0)

in both cases makes also them look more similar (and opposition comes on how
start is being used).
