-Subject: [PATCH] add basic register-field manipulation macros
-
-Common approach to accessing register fields is to define
-structures or sets of macros containing mask and shift pair.
-Operations on the register are then performed as follows:
-
- field = (reg >> shift) & mask;
-
- reg &= ~(mask << shift);
- reg |= (field & mask) << shift;
-
-Defining shift and mask separately is tedious. Ivo van Doorn
-came up with an idea of computing them at compilation time
-based on a single shifted mask (later refined by Felix) which
-can be used like this:
-
- #define REG_FIELD 0x000ff000
-
- field = FIELD_GET(REG_FIELD, reg);
-
- reg &= ~REG_FIELD;
- reg |= FIELD_PREP(REG_FIELD, field);
-
-FIELD_{GET,PREP} macros take care of finding out what the
-appropriate shift is based on compilation time ffs operation.
-
-GENMASK can be used to define registers (which is usually
-less error-prone and easier to match with datasheets).
-
-This approach is the most convenient I've seen so to limit code
-multiplication let's move the macros to a global header file.
-Attempts to use static inlines instead of macros failed due
-to false positive triggering of BUILD_BUG_ON()s, especially with
-GCC < 6.0.

-+ * Bitfield access macros
-+ *
-+ * FIELD_{GET,PREP} macros take as first parameter shifted mask

-+ * Mask must be a compilation time constant.
-+ *
-+ * Example:
-+ *
-+ * #define REG_FIELD_A GENMASK(6, 0)
-+ * #define REG_FIELD_B BIT(7)
-+ * #define REG_FIELD_C GENMASK(15, 8)
-+ * #define REG_FIELD_D GENMASK(31, 16)
-+ *
-+ * Get:
-+ * a = FIELD_GET(REG_FIELD_A, reg);
-+ * b = FIELD_GET(REG_FIELD_B, reg);
-+ *
-+ * Set:
-+ * reg = FIELD_PREP(REG_FIELD_A, 1) |
-+ * FIELD_PREP(REG_FIELD_B, 0) |
-+ * FIELD_PREP(REG_FIELD_C, c) |
-+ * FIELD_PREP(REG_FIELD_D, 0x40);
-+ *
-+ * Modify:
-+ * reg &= ~REG_FIELD_C;
-+ * reg |= FIELD_PREP(REG_FIELD_C, c);
