Yes, except we might as well simplify it. Do it without the statement 
expressions, using just a single 'y'. Like this:

  #define __round_mask(x,y) ((__typeof__(x))((y)-1))
  #define round_up(x,y) (((x) | __round_mask(x,y))+1)
  #define round_down(x,y) ((x) & ~__round_mask(x,y))

(Yeah, it uses 'x' twice, but the second one is for 'typeof', which 
doesn't actually cause the value to be evaluated, so it's ok).

Now those 'round_xyz()' operations will always return a value of a type 
that is the same as the type of 'x' except it's gone through the normal C 
integer promotion rules (ie if 'x' is a smaller type than 'int', then it 
will be promoted to 'int').

Not very well tested, but it _looks_ correct, and uses Peter's trick, and 
willlet the compiler notice that

	round_up(x,y)-1

is the same thing as

	x | (y-1)

which it _could_ have perhaps figured out before, but now it's way more 
obvious.
