Initially when IFS scan was added the all MSR structure members were bit-fields, later there was a suggestion to use basic C types if applicable during subsequent Array BIST patch series. I followed this approach with the current patch series . I will change the current series to use all bit-field MSR structures in v2, given mixing basic types and bitfields is a a source of confusion Jithu
