staging: rtl8723bs: remove unused BIT macros definitions
PATCH v2 1/1 staging: rtl8723bs: remove unused BIT macros definitions
BIT(x) macro used all over the driver is defined in include/vsdo/bit.h as
- #define BIT(nr) (UL(1) << (nr))
which is safer than the local BIT macros declared. Local macros shift a signed integer which brings unespected results. For example:
(unsigned long)(1 << 31) => 0xffffffff80000000
shift.c:
int main() {
printf("%lx\n", (unsigned long)(1 << 31));
printf("%lx\n", (unsigned long)(1U << 31));
return 0;
}...
$ ./shift ffffffff80000000 80000000
...
So just remove redundant, less safe macro declarations.
