+ * Bitfield access macros
+ *
+ * FIELD_{GET,PREP} macros take as first parameter shifted mask
+ * from which they extract the base mask and shift amount.
+ * 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);
