Fields are complex and cumbersome to match in a rule, and were only captured in order to generate the field accessors. However, there are other places (like the `Debug` and `Default` implementations) where we would benefit from having access to at least some of the field information, but refrained from doing so because it would have meant matching the whole fields in a rule more complex than we need. Introduce a new `@fields_dispatcher` internal rule that captures all the field information and passes it to `@field_accessors`. It does not provide any functional change in itself, but allows us to reuse the captured field information partially to provide better `Debug` and `Default` implementations in following patches.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
