Unless there is a particular reason for using preprocessor defines here, the
following form is typically better because it does not pollute the preprocessor
defines, e.g.:

enum lock_contention_flags {
        LCB_F_SPIN =   1U << 0;
        LCB_F_READ =   1U << 1;
        LCB_F_WRITE =  1U << 2;
        LCB_F_RT =     1U << 3;
        LCB_F_PERCPU = 1U << 4;
};
