There is generic CPUID feature helper queued for 4.3, which can extract
the feature bits

cpuid_feature_extract_field(feature, shift)

You might want to use it instead. Btw, I have a patch series(waiting for
the merge window, before I post), which changes the way we initialise the
HWCAP bits.

Thanks
Suzuki
