+ * Bitfield operations
+ *
+ * These are generic bitfield operations which allow manipulation of variable
+ * width bitfields within a word. One use of this would be to use data tables
+ * to determine how to reprogram fields within R/W hardware registers.
+ *
+ * Example:
+ *
+ *            old_reg_val
+ * +--------+----+---+--+-----+----------+
+ * |        |    |   |  | old |          |
+ * +--------+----+---+--+-----+----------+
+ *
+ *            new_reg_val
+ * +--------+----+---+--+-----+----------+
+ * |        |    |   |  | new |          |
+ * +--------+----+---+--+-----+----------+
+ *
+ * mask = bitfield_mask(10, 5);
+ * old = bitfield_extract(old_reg_val, 10, 5);
+ * new_reg_val = bitfield_replace(old_reg_val, 10, 5, new);
+ *
+ * The numbers 10 and 5 could for example come from data
+ * tables which describe all bitfields in all registers.
