Hi Simon,

I did this way because LMGR_SRAM_MODE_MASK is just a bit. Do you prefer
to do something like:

FIELD_PREP(LMGR_SRAM_MODE_MASK, 1)?

Are you referring to qdma0_buf/qdma1_buf memory regions?
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20250521-airopha-desc-sram-v3-1-a6e9b085b4f0@kernel.org/

If so, they are DRAM memory-regions and not SRAM ones. They are used for
hw forwarding buffers queue. SRAM is used for hw forwarding descriptor queue.
