Having two seperate structs for the I/O-APIC RTE entries (non-remapped and
DMAR remapped) requires type casts and makes it hard to map.
Combine them in IO_APIC_routing_entry by defining a union of two 64bit
bitfields. Use naming which reflects which bits are shared and which bits
are actually different for the operating modes.
[dwmw2: Fix it up and finish the job, pulling the 32-bit w1,w2 words for
register access into the same union and eliminating a few more
places where bits were accessed through masks and shifts.]

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
