The code in amdvi_encode_event() calls amdvi_setevent_bits() with
start = 64:
amdvi_setevent_bits(evt, addr, 64, 64);
and amdvi_setevent_bits() then calculates:
uint64_t mask = MAKE_64BIT_MASK(start, length);
but this MAKE_64BIT_MASK() macro shifts a value left by "start" bit
positions. Shifting left by more than 63 is undefined behavior and
could have unexpected results with different compilers / architectures.
Fix it by using "bitpos" instead, which was likely the original
intended behavior anyway. (bitpos is calculated as bitpos = start % 64).
