Hi Abdul,

Thank you for providing a patch to add this feature to Acpiview.

I have some minor feedback marked inline as [SAMI].

[SAMI] Is there a use-case where the bitfield length will be zero? I think any unused bits would be represented as Reserved. Considering this, Parser[Index].Length == 0 would mean an incorrect an incorrect description in ACPI_PARSER, right?
If so, the default case for the switch statement below would print "ERROR: %a: CANNOT PARSE THIS FIELD, Field Length". Can you check this, please?

[SAMI]  ACPI_PARSER.ItemPtr is used to get a reference to the field data in the original ACPI table data.
In the current case, Parser[Index].ItemPtr is being set to a local variable (i.e. Data). I don't think this is what we want. I think it would be better to not support ACPI_PARSER.ItemPtr for BitFields.
I would recommend adding a comment to clarify that ItemPtr is not supported for BitFields in this function, as well as the documentation for ACPI_PARSER structure.
