Below is another scenario::

test_bit called with args 
PG_slab = 7;
page->flags = 0xc0;
test_bit(PG_slab, &page->flags) returns value 0. This is used by PageSlab in
linux kernel.

/**
 * test_bit - Determine whether a bit is set
 * @nr: bit number to test
 * @addr: Address to start counting from
 */
static inline int test_bit(int nr, const volatile unsigned long *addr)
{
    return 1UL & (addr[BIT_WORD(nr)] >> (nr & (BITS_PER_LONG-1)));
}

but if i modify the return as 

    return (addr[BIT_WORD(nr)] >> (nr & (BITS_PER_LONG-1)));

the results are as expected, which i dont understand.

Also in all the scenarios that i reported earlier the bitwise AND is in between
a variable and a constants.
