A new warning in clang points out when macro expansion might result in a
GNU C statement expression. There is an instance of this in the mwifiex
driver:

drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/cmdevt.c:217:34: warning: '}' and
')' tokens terminating statement expression appear in different macro
expansion contexts [-Wcompound-token-split-by-macro]
        host_cmd->seq_num = cpu_to_le16(HostCmd_SET_SEQ_NO_BSS_INFO
                                        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/fw.h:519:46: note: expanded from
macro 'HostCmd_SET_SEQ_NO_BSS_INFO'
        (((type) & 0x000f) << 12);                  }
                                                    ^

This does not appear to be a real issue. Removing the braces and
replacing them with parentheses will fix the warning and not change the
meaning of the code.
