Okay after reading the source code of Sparse I think what this kind of
warnings actually means is to hint us a possible misuse of "|" instead
of "||" (i.e. misusing a binary operator in a conditional context). Here
the code is doing binary operation (i.e. to flip a bit or two), so in
this sense the warnings should be just false alarms.

However, the original code is a bit weird for me because of the sudden
appearance of a boolean operator (i.e. "!") in the middle of a binary
calculation. And I think it looks better after this change, since it
makes the expression look more "binary". So maybe we can still consider
apply this change ;)

Greetings,
Ruiqi
