There's GENMASK(), though it takes a high bit and low bit rather than a
bit position and count, so it'd require a small bit of arithmetic, e.g.

  lastbit = gpio->first_irq_bit + gpio->num_irqs - 1;
  ours = GENMASK(lastbit, gpio->first_irq_bit);

or a manual shift:

  ours = GENMASK(gpio->num_irqs - 1, 0) << gpio->first_irq_bit;

(I don't have any terribly strong opinions on which of these is best,
personally.)
