For future reference, please find the commit id of the committed patch,
and reference that with the Fixes: tag. Please Cc the folks from the
commit.
Whoever commits this must add:
Fixes: 3c779a49bd7c ("drm/i915: Avoid BIT(max) - 1 and use GENMASK(max - 1, 0)")
Cc: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahti...@linux.intel.com>

Joonas, Chris, please check the rest of the regressing commit that it
doesn't suffer from the same issue.
Thanks,
Jani.
