"nbits = min(end - start + 1," seems to expect that start == end is legal
for clearing only 1 bit. But this function is no-op if start == end.
Please clarify what "inclusive" intended.

If xb_clear_bit_range(xb,10,10), then it is effectively the same as xb_clear_bit(10). Why would it be illegal?

"@start inclusive" means that the @start will also be included to be cleared.

It looks strange to apply __builtin_constant_p test to variables after "& 7".


I think this is normal - if the variables are known at compile time, the calculation will be done at compile time (termed constant folding).


Best,
Wei
