🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• __mask — the shifted mask defining the field's length and position. that's the whole vibe check right there 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so this is a local wrapper for FIELD_MAX, and its whole job is to return the maximum bit value that can be held in the field specified by _mask — yes, _mask, exactly like that — and then cast it to u32 for consistency with other macros. no cap, that's the entire lore. 💖
