[PATCH 2/7] gpu: nova-core: Add support to convert bitfield to underlying type

[Joel Fernandes <joelagnelf@nvidia.com>]

To support the usecase where we read a register and write to another
with identical bit layout, add support to convert bitfield to underlying type.

Another way to do this, is to read individual fields, on the caller
side, and write to the destination fields, but that is both cumbersome
and error-prone as new bits added in hardware may be missed.
