It's giving errors because of unbalanced parenthesis. You have more
opening parenthesis than closing ones in your macro definition.

You should really use an editor which shows you the extent of your
parens (Emacs is good ;-).
 
I suppose what you wanted was something like:

#define   GTP_GET_U64BIT(p_buff)   (unsigned long long) \
          (((U64bit)(*(p_buff))       << 56) | \
           ((U64bit)((*(p_buff + 1))) << 48) | \
           ((U64bit)((*(p_buff + 2))) << 40) | \
           ((U64bit)((*(p_buff + 3))) << 32) | \
           ((U64bit)((*(p_buff + 4))) << 24) | \
           ((U64bit)((*(p_buff + 5))) << 16) | \
           ((U64bit)((*(p_buff + 6))) <<  8) | \
           ((U64bit)((*(p_buff + 7)))))
