mem-cache: Fix integer promotion of mask
When applying the bitwise not to a short integer the compiler
automatically promotes it to an integer. For example, if a 8-bit
mask=0xFF, and the compiler decides to promote the mask to 32-bit
to apply the bitwise not, ~mask=0xFFFFFF00, which will yield wrong
results for popcount(): expected=0, got=24.
