Construct UART Data Frame with Parity Bit

Code

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>

typedef struct {
    uint8_t parity_enable : 1;
    uint8_t parity_type   : 1;
    uint8_t reserved      : 6;

    if (ctrl->parity_enable == 0) {
    
        data &= ~(1 << 7);
    } else {

        int bit_count = 0;
        while (temp) {
            bit_count += temp & 1;
