I was about to make the same comment but then realized we are trying to
clear *2* bits. And since that logic will also, I think, set the bits
when the corresponding pa-feature is present, it means we will also set
those 2 bits if we put both in the mask...

Not sure that's quite what we want, but then I'm not sure what the 2
bits are about, which is why I postponed commenting :-)

Cheers,
