The patches look good, thanks! they are almost there, however, they do
not completely resolve the issue that my patch 1 tried (incorrectly) to
fix: namely x being a bitwise type. Comments below.

Please queue it up for 3.20. Extra __force is needed in a couple of
places - would you like to fix this up yourself, or do you want me to
write a patch on top?

This cast to __typeof(x) needs to be done with __force, otherwise
there will be a warning with bitwise types.

And this cast to __inttype too.
