bitfield: Add non-constant field_{prep,get}() helpers

The existing FIELD_{GET,PREP}() macros are limited to compile-time
constants.  However, it is very common to prepare or extract bitfield
elements where the bitfield mask is not a compile-time constant.

To avoid this limitation, the AT91 clock driver and several other
drivers already have their own non-const field_{prep,get}() macros.
Make them available for general use by adding them to
<linux/bitfield.h>, and improve them slightly:
  1. Avoid evaluating macro parameters more than once,
  2. Replace "ffs() - 1" by "__ffs()",
  3. Support 64-bit use on 32-bit architectures,
  4. Wire field_{get,prep}() to FIELD_{GET,PREP}() when mask is
     actually constant.

This is deliberately not merged into the existing FIELD_{GET,PREP}()
macros, as people expressed the desire to keep stricter variants for
increased safety, or for performance critical paths.

Yury: use __mask withing new macros.
