It is OK for mainline on principle but there is no ChangeLog entry and the patch doesn't follow the GNU Coding Style: TABs instead of spaces, spaces before parentheses, etc. See the equivalent code in extract_bit_field_1. Moreover you need to properly test it on a mainstream big-endian platform. See http://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html for a more complete reference. -- Eric Botcazou
