Sure, but you make the code look much less obvious. Checking a bit is
set is "a & b", checking if not set is "!(a & b)". If you check
whether a whole mask is set, you run "(a & m) == m", checking whether
it not set should be the negation, which is "(a & m) != m".

I'd prefer keeping the current code, unless the compiler cannot figure
it out on its own.
