I don't see a problem to leave the bitfields;  they can be read & matched
easier with the datasheet.

It was also nice before that the PAT0..PAT2 bitfields were used to define a
good pattern, since it's easier to match with the datasheet.

I like the general usage of GENMASK, but I'm not sure in this case it's
worth doing. Maybe I missed a discussion somewhere, about doing this
change, but it is mostly a cosmetic without any functional change.
