you are explaining what you are doing, but not why you are doing this.
So why are you doing this ?

you want to use bits 63..59 but picking bits 63..53 with this.  While
bits 58..53 are probably 0, wouldn't it make also sense to mask them out ?

why are you removing this empty line ? I'd prefer that it stays there...

Crap can work. Given enough thrust pigs will fly, but it's not necessarily a
good idea.                                                [ RFC1925, 2.3 ]
