Re: [PATCH] staging: r8188eu: remove local BIT macro

This version is better, thanks!

What the GCC devs should have done is run their checker on real code and
silence the common false positives.  There are a few ways to do this.
You could make ~ a special case.  They already ignore truncated sign
extension so they could equally well ignore truncation when all it's a
32 bits which are all set to 1.  Probably the best answer is to do both.

Sure, you might miss some bugs that way, but anyone relying on GCC to
find *all* their bugs is a moron.
