So you guys will hate me for just now bringing it up, but I'd really
prefer we switch from the bitfields to bit defines. We should also
minimize the amount of functions that depend on asms, i.e. only one
function per sysreg should be enough. The rest can be done in C. Please
also make sure the tests run with both tcg and kvm. That may mean probing
something and then reporting a SKIP where a feature isn't implemented.

Thanks,
