why bitops.h? coz BIT qualifies for a "bitop"

I don't think there is anyone who objects to this

as they will not be warned
And this is the reason for this overly long thread :)
So all we need is people to be carefull before passing anything to BIT
This is the difficult thing to do
so now i think it should be ok to have
#define BIT(nr) (1UL << ((nr) % BITS_PER_LONG))
#define LLBIT(nr) (1ULL << (nr))

Since you guys seems in agreement about the silenced compiler-warnings,
then I will rest my case.
