By the way:
CHECK:SPACING: spaces preferred around that '<<' (ctx:VxV)
#33: FILE: drivers/net/nfp/nfp_net.c:123:
+#define DMA_BIT_MASK(n) (((n) == 64) ? DMA_64BIT_MASK : ((1ULL<<(n))-1))
^
CHECK:SPACING: spaces preferred around that '-' (ctx:VxV)
#33: FILE: drivers/net/nfp/nfp_net.c:123:
+#define DMA_BIT_MASK(n) (((n) == 64) ? DMA_64BIT_MASK : ((1ULL<<(n))-1))
^
total: 0 errors, 0 warnings, 2 checks, 23 lines checked

Makes sense...
