[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/mlx5: fix left shift extension of doorbell bitmap

From: Bing Zhao:
> The doorbell record is organized with page and bitmap. When some new
> doorbell needs to be associated with a queue, the bit will be set in the
> bitmap to indicate the corresponding doorbell occupied. A counter is used to
> record the number of doorbell occupied to speed up the searching.
> If the number reachs the maximal value of a pre-defined number of a page, a
> new page will be allocated. If not, then the bitmap will be checked to find a
> free one.
> The LSHIFT and OR (AND NOT) operations are used to update the bitmap of a
> page. But 1 will be treated as a signed integer when compiling.
> When the shift number is 31, the shifted value will be considered as
> negative. Then a wrong extension will be done when setting it to a 64-bits
> variable. All the upper 32-bits will be set to 1 by such extension.
> Then a wrong offset value will be calculated because of this. The next 64 bits
> will be also treated as the bitmap and get corrupted through the bit set
> operation.
> The immediate value 1 needs to be used as 64 bits width explicitly.
