This is the wholesale:

typedef unsigned long long u64;

/* usable for char, short int, and int */
#define set_to_max(a) do { \
        u64 __val_max = ((u64) 1 << (sizeof(a) * 8)) - 1; \
        a = __val_max; \
        if ((u64) a != __val_max) \
                a = __val_max / 2; \
} while(0)

#define set_to_min(a) do { \
        set_to_max(a); \
        a++; \
} while(0)
