You've send a few of mechanical patches without waiting for feedback and
you should probably slow down...
The first thing to notice is that the original code is probably buggy
and needs parenthesis.
switch ((currentValue & MASK_DATAMODUL_MODULATION_TYPE) >> 3) {
But that still doesn't fix the problem that x18 >> 3 is never going to
equal to DATAMODUL_MODULATION_TYPE_OOK which is 0x8... So there are a
couple bugs here.
The line is over 80 characters, so checkpatch will complain about your
patch. Please run checkpatch.pl on all your patches. Really, I hate
all the naming here... Surely we can think of a better name than
MASK_DATAMODUL_MODULATION_TYPE? Normally the "MASK" and "SHIFT" part of
the name go at the end instead of the start.

Why did you add a blank line? Don't use hex values for shifting, use
normal numbers. The 0x3 is indented too far.
Anyway, take your time and really think about patches before you send
them. Normally, I write a patch, then wait overnight, then review it
and again in the morning before I send it.
