Subject: [PATCH 3.10 010/143] linux/const.h: Add _BITUL() and _BITULL()

From: "H. Peter Anvin" <hpa@...ux.intel.com>

commit 2fc016c5bd8aad2e201cdf71b9fb4573f94775bd upstream.

Add macros for single bit definitions of a specific type.  These are
similar to the BIT() macro that already exists, but with a few
exceptions:

1. The namespace is such that they can be used in uapi definitions.
2. The type is set with the _AC() macro to allow it to be used in
   assembly.
3. The type is explicitly specified to be UL or ULL.

[wt: backported to 3.10 only to keep next patch clean]
