[PATCH v2 3/3] arm64/cache: Fix cache_type_cwg() for register generation

Ard noticed that since we converted CTR_EL0 to automatic generation we have
been seeing errors on some systems handling the value of cache_type_cwg()
such as

   CPU features: No Cache Writeback Granule information, assuming 128

This is because the manual definition of CTR_EL0_CWG_MASK was done without
a shift while our convention is to define the mask after shifting. This
means that the user in cache_type_cwg() was broken as it was written for
the manually written shift then mask. Fix this by converting to use
SYS_FIELD_GET().

The only other field where the _MASK for this register is used is IminLine
which is at offset 0 so unaffected.
