There isn't a way to do it in one go that I can think of.
The first statement is multiplying the value by a power of 2, not just sign extending it.
You could sign extend first then shift to do the multiply, but ends up same amount
of code.

It does look a bit like a weird open coded sign extension though so I can see where
the confusion came from!

Agreed, could do it with appropriate ffs() followed by if (BIT(i) != gain) return -EINVAL;
