Yes, it's my typo. I meant 0xFFFFFFFF.

As for 'hosts', the expression "2 << (32 - netmask - 1)" is also subject 
to overflow, but the type of the variable 'hosts' is u32, and the type 
casting gives the correct result. But I will fix it for correctness.


Thank you for review. I will change that in V2.
