Hcalls have a 16 bit 'payload', the upper bits of the ISS field are specified as zero by the architecture so 0xffff is the same as 0x1ffffff. > And, there is a macro UL() for this purpose, so I suppose you could > redefine ESR_EL2_IL as (UL(1) << 25) as well.

The one other use of ESR_EL2_IL will promote the operation to unsigned long without ill effect. I'll prepare an updated patch. -Geoff
