I suspect GENMASK() should generate u32 or u64 depending on the value
of a constant 'high bit'.

I found code elsewhere that doesn't really want FIELD_PREP() to
generate a 64bit value.

There are actually a lot of dubious uses of 'long' throughout
the kernel that break on 32bit.
(Actually pretty much all of them!)
