Subject: [PATCH 0/2] uapi: Add support for GENMASK_U128()

This adds support for GENMASK_U128() and some corresponding tests as well.
GENMASK_U128() generated 128 bit masks will be required later on the arm64
platform for enabling FEAT_SYSREG128 and FEAT_D128 features.

Question:

Proposed GENMASK_U128() depends on __int128 data type being supported in
the compiler. Just wondering if that requires some compiler version #ifdefs
or something similar ?
