No. You should have v2 out in about a week or so after people have time
to review v1 some more.

btw parenthesis around (x) missing, although this is like GEN_MASK() or
something here ...

Is that something new in C 201x draft ? Anyway, this would mean half of
the drivers are broken, so I'm not convinced.

Yes, that argument isn't gonna work, it'd make things impossible to
maintain in the kernel.
