It's not expected to be a common occurrence, but a host should protect 
itself from an un-cooperative guest.

It was probably a short cut to use BIT_ULL() to start with because the 
error codes are not intended to be single bit positions, e.g., the next 
value will be 3.

So these should really be:

#define SNP_GUEST_REQ_INVALID_LEN	(1ULL << 32)
#define SNP_GUEST_REQ_ERR_BUSY		(2ULL << 32)

Thanks,
Tom
