Hmmm, yet another bitfield...
Yes, this is the firmware interface.
If it makes problem I can use masks and logic arithmetic
It depends ... if we are sure that this will ever only be used with KVM on
real s390x hardware, then bitfields are OK. If we think that this is
something that could be implemented in TCG, too, I'd scratch the bitfields
and use logic arithmetic instead...
I'm not too experienced with this CPU topology stuff, but it sounds like it
could be implemented in TCG without too much efforts one day, too, so I'd
rather go with the logic arithmetic immediately instead if it is not too
annoying for you right now.

Happy new year?
So after Nina's comment what do I do?
let it be 22 because I started last year or update because what is important
is when it comes into mainline?
Honestly, I don't have a really good clue either... But keeping 2022 is
certainly fine for me, too.
