drm/i915: deprecate _SHIFT in favor of _MASK passed to accessors
bitfield.h defines FIELD_GET() and FIELD_PREP() macros to access bitfields using the mask alone, with no need for separate shift. Indeed, the shift is redundant. We define REG_FIELD_GET() and REG_FIELD_PREP() wrappers for the above, in part to force u32 and for consistency with REG_BIT() and REG_GENMASK(), but also as we'll need to redefine REG_FIELD_PREP() in follow-up work to make it produce integer constant expressions. For the most part, REG_FIELD_GET() is shorter than masking followed by shift, and arguably has more clarity. REG_FIELD_PREP() can get more verbose than simply shifting in place, but it does provide masking to ensure we don't overflow the mask, something we usually don't bother with currently. Convert power sequencer registers as an example. v3: - temp variable removal (Chris) - rebase v2: - Add the REG_FIELD_GET() and REG_FIELD_PREP() wrappers to use them consistently from the start.
