Regardless of the "bitfield" discussion on the other patches, this part
is considered a fast path (although if where it is called, then it may
not be). I would just have:

		__field(	u64,	data	)

		__entry->data = status.data;

		__entry->data >> 32,
		(__entry->data >> 16) & 0xffff,

Or something similar. That is, move the parsing of the bits to the
output. libtraceevent should still be able to handle this.
