vs cpu-endian vs whatever), and there the constant "0" really _is_

special.

__bitwise__ - to be used for relatively compact stuff (gfp_t, etc.) that
|
||||
is mostly warning-free and is supposed to stay that way. Warnings will

be generated without __CHECK_ENDIAN__.

__bitwise - noisy stuff; in particular, __le*/__be* are that. We really
|
||||
don't want to drown in noise unless we'd explicitly asked for it.
