No, that's not the way bitwise works. Printk will treat it as an
unsigned it just fine. bitwise will only warn if you treat the value
as anything other than a bitmask (| & ^) will be fine as long as it
is done with another gfp_t....all the arithmatic operators +-* etc
will warn.

The following looks like the correct way to fix this.
