add upper-32-bits macro
We keep on getting "right shift count >= width of type" warnings when doing
things like
sector_t s;
x = s >> 56;
because with CONFIG_LBD=n, s is only 32-bit. Similar problems can occur with
dma_addr_t's.
So add a simple wrapper function which code can use to avoid this warning.
The above example would become
x = upper_32_bits(s) >> 24;
