Use a helper macro for those bits:

#define DT2821_SUPCSR_DS(x)             (((x) & 0x3) << 10)
#define DT2821_SUPCSR_DS_PIO            DT2821_SUPCSR_DS(0)
#define DT2821_SUPCSR_DS_AD_CLK         DT2821_SUPCSR_DS(1)
#define DT2821_SUPCSR_DS_DA_CLK         DT2821_SUPCSR_DS(2)
#define DT2821_SUPCSR_DS_AD_TRIG                DT2821_SUPCSR_DS(3)

Your change may fix the gcc-6 issue but it doesn't fix the 28 checkpatch.pl
issues:
CHECK: Prefer using the BIT macro
