I think FIELD_FIT() should not pass the value into __BF_FIELD_CHECK().

So:

diff --git a/include/linux/bitfield.h b/include/linux/bitfield.h
index 48ea093ff04c..4e035aca6f7e 100644

 #define FIELD_FIT(_mask, _val)                                         \
        ({                                                              \
-               __BF_FIELD_CHECK(_mask, 0ULL, _val, "FIELD_FIT: ");     \
+               __BF_FIELD_CHECK(_mask, 0ULL, 0ULL, "FIELD_FIT: ");     \
                !((((typeof(_mask))_val) << __bf_shf(_mask)) & ~(_mask)); \
        })
 
It's perfectly legal to pass a constant which does not fit, in which
case FIELD_FIT() should just return false not break the build.

Right?
