See this commit:
3c7a8e190bc5 uapi: introduce uapi-friendly macros for GENMASK
GENMASK() for a long time was not available to uapi headers since uapi
headers can only include other include/uapi/ headers, not
include/linux/. That commit made some common kernel bitfield helpers
finally available to the uapi side of the house.
