/*
* MACRO: Fld
*
* Purpose
* The macro "Fld" encodes a bit field, given its size and its shift value
* with respect to bit 0.
*
* Note
* A more intuitive way to encode bit fields would have been to use their
* mask. However, extracting size and shift value information from a bit
* field's mask is cumbersome and might break the assembler (255-character
* line-size limit).
*
* Input
* Size Size of the bit field, in number of bits.
* Shft Shift value of the bit field with respect to bit 0.
*
* Output
* Fld Encoded bit field.

* MACROS: FSize, FShft, FMsk, FAlnMsk, F1stBit
*
* Purpose
* The macros "FSize", "FShft", "FMsk", "FAlnMsk", and "F1stBit" return
* the size, shift value, mask, aligned mask, and first bit of a
* bit field.
*
* Input
* Field Encoded bit field (using the macro "Fld").
*
* Output
* FSize Size of the bit field, in number of bits.
* FShft Shift value of the bit field with respect to bit 0.
* FMsk Mask for the bit field.
* FAlnMsk Mask for the bit field, aligned on bit 0.
* F1stBit First bit of the bit field.

Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
