Modify FLASH_EN_SHIFT and TORCH_EN_SHIFT macros to work properly
when passed enum max77693_fled values (0 for FLED1 and 1 for FLED2)
from leds-max77693 driver.
Off-by-one ay?  Wasn't the original code tested?
The driver using these macros is a part of LED / flash API integration
patch series, which still undergoes modifications and it hasn't
reached its final state yet, as there are many things to discuss.
To be more precise: the original code had been tested and was working
properly with the header that is in the mainline. Nonetheless, because
of the modifications in the driver that was requested during code
review, it turned out that it would be more convenient to redefine the
macros.

I'd opt for just agreeing about the mfd related patches and merge
them no sooner than the leds-max77693 driver is merged.
The only way we can guarantee this is to have them go in during
different merge-windows, unless of course they go in via the same tree.
Umm. Maintainers should be able to coordinate that. Delaying patch for
one major release seems rather cruel. Perhaps one maintainer should
ack the patch and the second one should merge it...
Wow, you're just everywhere today. :)

Read the part after the comma again.
