GENMASK(30, 21) should be 0x7fe00000. Fixed this in the comment
in bitops.h.
I am afraid this commit message is incomplete. You say you just
corrected the bitmask returned but...

Changelog :-
v2 :- 1. Replaced the word "vector" with "value" in comment.
2. Changed 0x07fe00000 to 0x7fe00000.
3. Updated the commit message to make it meaningful.

/*
* Create a contiguous bitmask starting at bit position @l and ending at

- * GENMASK(30, 21) gives us the 32bit vector 0x01fe00000.
+ * GENMASK(30, 21) gives us the 32bit value 0x7fe00000.
... there are two extra changes here:
1) The bitmask is now described with 8-characters (rather than 9)
2) 'vector' is replaced with 'value'
The former makes sense to me, but it is not clear to me why the latter
should be changed.
