If it is, maybe add a GENMASK_CONST() that uses BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO_MSG() (recently proposed) and so validates that the values are constants. And then use statically_true() in the normal case to pick up more errors. (Or just remove the check because coders really aren't that stupid!) The interesting cases are the ones using variables. And they'd need run-time checks of some form. David - Registered Address Lakeside, Bramley Road, Mount Farm, Milton Keynes, MK1 1PT, UK Registration No: 1397386 (Wales)
