I don't think it will work. 

>From the commit log introducing the {type}_get_bits to <linux/bitfield.h>
"    Field specification must be a constant; __builtin_constant_p() doesn't
    have to be true for it, but compiler must be able to evaluate it at
    build time.  If it cannot or if the value does not encode any bitfield,
    the build will fail. "

Actually Geert Uytterhoeven tried to solve excatly this issue, but it
seems that the patch was not accepted. 
Check: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/3a54a6703879d10f08cf0275a2a69297ebd2b1d4.1637592133.git.geert+renesas@xxxxxxxxx/


So which solution would be the best:

1. Use directly KX132_MASK_BUF_SMP_LVL, the only reason I was trying to
avoid this was to make this function generic enough for other chip
variants

2. Copy the field_get() definition from drivers/clk/at91 or from the commit
of Geert and use it in this driver

3. leave it as it is ? 

4. another solution ?

Do you have a strong opinion about this ? 

I would really prefer to leave it like this, for the following reasons:

1. If I directly use values here, I have to do it also in the previous
patch where I introduce the chip_info for the kx022a -> this means I
will have defines in the h file which are not used at all -> the defines should
be deleted -> the patch will get unnecessarily bigger. I received
multiple comments about removing unnecessary changes and reducing of the
patch size when possible.

2. Consistency: having all the defines in one place really seems to be
better for understanding IMO. I find the mix of values and defines in 
the chip-info a bit confusing, e.g., I will use the direct value for 
KX132_REG_CNTL but not for KX132_REG_CNTL2 because KX132_REG_CNTL2 is
referenced in a regmap_range.
