You can use something like this, though it's less self-descriptive:

#include <stdio.h>
    typedef unsigned int DWORD;
    #define DUP4BYTES(c) ((DWORD)(c) | (DWORD)(c) << 8 | (DWORD)(c) <<
16 | (DWORD)(c) << 24)

int main()
    {
    	unsigned int x = DUP4BYTES(0x54);
    	printf("x = %08x\n", x);

return 0;
    }

GCC is smart enough to produce "movl   $0x54545454,-0x4(%rbp)" in its output.
