That's a good suggestion since GENMASK would be useful in making it
clear which bits we are actually checking; the literal bitmasks such as
0xFF000000 can be difficult to read at a glance. I'll incorporate
GENMASK into a version 4 release of this patch.

The inb function returns a u8, which is typically a typedef of an
unsigned char. Since u8 only guaranteed a range of 8 bits, we require a
cast to unsigned long to guarantee that the left shifted value stays
intact as a 32-bit unsigned value rather than wrap around an 8-bit
unsigned range.
