I really think these should have event in the name.

Someone looking at the code is going to see event_get_foo() and wonder where
that is defined. Grep won't find a definition, tags won't find a definition,
the least you can do is have the macro name give some hint.

It doesn't generate a format attribute.

What's wrong with:

(0x1ULL << ((bit_end) - (bit_start) + 1)) - 1ULL;
