The reason for making this a bitfield rather than uint16_t is because D127762 
extends the struct with another (bit)field:

    /// Any AArch64 SME ACLE type attributes that need to be propagated
    /// on declarations and function pointers.
    unsigned AArch64SMEAttributes : 6;

I thought having this all be bitfields made more sense, but I'm happy to change 
it to a uint16_t if that is preferred.

I suspect that the assert is still required to ensure that the value stored 
fits the value? Using `uint16_t` doesn't change that, or did I miss something?
