From 7ee8809df990d1de379002973baee1681e8d7dd3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Keith Busch <kbusch@kernel.org> Date: Thu, 3 Mar 2022 12:13:08 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] linux/kernel: introduce lower_48_bits function Recent data integrity field enhancements allow reference tags to be up to 48 bits. Introduce an inline helper function since this will be a repeated operation.
