Perfect, except the include: BIT is not defined in bitops.h, but in
bits.h (which includes vdso/bits.h). In fact, bitops.h includes bits.h
too, but it's superfluous to include all those bitops.

Maybe the recommendation in the checkpatch documentation should be
fixed then?

+1 since:

commit 8bd9cb51daac89337295b6f037b0486911e1b408
Author: Will Deacon <will@xxxxxxxxxx>

locking/atomics, asm-generic: Move some macros from <linux/bitops.h> to a new <linux/bits.h> file

So care to fix checkpatch too :)?

thanks,
