[PATCH] arm64: cpufeature: Warn if we attempt to read a zero width field

Wed Mar 2 05:47:02 PST 2022


Add a WARN_ON_ONCE() when extracting a field if no width is specified. This
should never happen outside of development since it will be triggered with
or without the feature so long as the relevant ID register is present.
