The isa_mode() macro extracts two fields, and recombines them into a single value. The shift value of the J-bit may look off-by-one to the casual reader, as it is the net result of the extraction and recombination steps.
I'd recommend avoiding the suggestion that the explicit "- 1" could be misinterpreted as an off-by-one error.
#define isa_mode(regs) \ - ((((regs)->ARM_cpsr & PSR_J_BIT) >> (__ffs(PSR_J_BIT) - 1)) | \ - (((regs)->ARM_cpsr & PSR_T_BIT) >> (__ffs(PSR_T_BIT)))) + ((FIELD_GET(PSR_J_BIT, (regs)->ARM_cpsr) << 1) | \
I'd suggest getting rid of the extra unnecessary parens there. Too many parens leads to a decrease in readability. -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 40Mbps down 10Mbps up.
