mem-cache: Fix non-bijective function in Skewed caches
The hash() function must be bijective for the skewed caches to work, however when the hashing is done on top of a one-bit address, the MSB and LSB refer to the same bit, and therefore their xor will always be zero. This patch adds a fatal error to not allow the user to set an invalid value for the number of sets that would generate that bug. As a side note, the missing header for the bitfields functions has been added.
