Solution: Use a uvarnumber_T type cast.

The "<<" and ">>" operators can be used to perform bitwise left or right shift
of the left operand by the number of bits specified by the right operand. The
! operands must be positive numbers. The topmost bit (sign bit) is always
! cleared for ">>". If the right operand (shift amount) is more than the
! maximum number of bits in a number (|v:numbersize|) the result is zero.

The "<<" and ">>" operators can be used to perform bitwise left or right shift
of the left operand by the number of bits specified by the right operand. The
! operands are used as positive numbers. When shifting right with ">>" the
! topmost bit (somtimes called the sign bit) is cleared. If the right operand
! (shift amount) is more than the maximum number of bits in a number
! (|v:numbersize|) the result is zero.
