    This reverts commit 36b34d2437104f323e09d7c6af6451d3c0b9c0cd.
    
    From: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk>
    
    WIW, *all* this stuff is not bitwise at all.  For crying out loud, half
    of these types are routinely used as array indices and loop variables...
    
    If anything, we want a different set of allowed operations - subtraction
    between elements of type (yielding integer), addition/subtraction of
    integer types not bigger than ours (yielding our type), comparisons,
    assignments (=, +=, -=, passing to function as argument, return from
    function, initializers) and second/third arguments in ?:.  With 0 *not*
    being allowed as a constant of such type.
    
    It's not bitwise; we may use the same infrastructure in sparse, but it
    should be a separate class of types (__attribute__((affine))).
    
    dma_addr_t is another candidate for the same treatment, but there we'll
    need helpers for conversions to hw-acceptable form (dma_to_le32(), etc.)
    and gradual conversion of drivers.
    
    ALSA ones and pm mess are absolutely straightforward cases, though.
