We've added REG_FIELD_PREP() precisely to avoid the problems with the
types and ranges, as we want it to operate on u32. It also uses
__is_constexpr() to avoid dependencies on compiler implementation and
optimizations.

Please use REG_FIELD_PREP() and a constant value. Maybe rethink the
interface if needed.

Jani.
