We still had cases of the compiler not doing obvious
multiplication/division to shift conversion lately.  That being said:

 1) this is an initialization path, no one actually cares
 2) we're dealing with constants here, and compilers are really good
    at constant folding

so yes, this should be using the much more readable version.
