Then we have to mask it out ever time we want to reference it.  Qemu
doesn't seem to like macros or inlines for that, so using a new variable
keeps things neat.  Caching two fields to bools is still more space
efficient than saving the whole thing and we can easily switch to named
bits if we get enough to start caring about the space.  Thanks,
