I should have added see below.

yes and looking at this, I feel u32_encode_bits(GENMASK(24, 22), (fun))
would look better than FIELD_PREP(GENMASK(24, 22), FIELD_GET(GENMASK(2, 0), (fun)))

Do you agree?

Which one would you prefer:

        #define SDCA_FUN_MASK           GENMASK(24, 22)

        foo |= u32_encode_bits(SDCA_FUN_MASK, fun)

Or the one proposed...?
