Subject: ALSA: bits vs bytes bug in snd_card_create()

commit 4c3773eda49c872a3034382f8ec3080002e715bf upstream.

The test here is intended intended to prevent shift wrapping bugs when
we do "1U << idx2".  We should consider the number of bits in a u32
instead of the number of bytes.

[fix another chunk similarly by tiwai]
