If this builds, I guess #define BIT(x) got pulled in indirectly
since bits.h nor bitops.h is currently #included in that source file.

Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst rule #1 says:
1) If you use a facility then #include the file that defines/declares
that facility. Don't depend on other header files pulling in ones
that you use.

Please add #include <linux/bits or bitops.h>
