There is some of this in already here, 32 and 64 bit versions:
include/linux/bitops.h
Do we really need zero extension? It seems the same.
Example implementation from bitops.h
static inline __s32 sign_extend32(__u32 value, int index)
{
__u8 shift = 31 - index;
return (__s32)(value << shift) >> shift;
}
