Yes, it's a mix.  For some recent additions, I've resisted adding the
_SHIFT macros on the theory that they clutter the file, they never
change, and the main point of the #defines is readability and so
grep/tags/etc can find things.

There are a *few* users of FIELD_PREP() and FIELD_GET():

  git grep -E "FIELD_(GET|PREP)\(PCI_EXP"

and I'm inclined to go that direction in the future.  What do you
think?
