[alsa-devel] [patch] ALSA: emu10k1: shift wrapping bug in snd_emu10k1_ptr_read()

Static analysis says "size" is a number 0-63.  So we really want to be
doing the shift as a u64 and not a int type.  Presumably "size" is never
actually more than 31 otherwise the shift wrap would have been detected
in testing.  The "mask" is a u32 so we only care about the bottom 32
bits which also implies that "size" is less than 32.

This code pre-dates git.  I haven't tested this change, it's to fix a
static analysis warning.  I can't think that shift wrapping is the
correct behavior so presumably this change is harmless but it definitely
changes how the code works when size is larger than 32.
