Mmm... isn't "!=" what you mean ?

We cannot use less then an unsigned int for the fields above... am I
missing something?

The number of buckets is currently KConfig limited to a max of 20, which gives:

   UCLAMP_BUCKETS: 21 => 5bits

Thus, even on 32 bit targets and assuming 21bits for an "extended"
SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE range we should always fit into an unsigned int
and have at least 6 bits for flags.

Are you afraid of some compiler magic related to bitfields packing ?
