Well, it's not really passing a bitset. 
I mean, it is passing a bitset, but it's passing a bitset with a single bit set - since that's what Mask is. 
In any case, the function definitely doesn't expect anything else. E.g. this is what we have for x86:


```
static const char *getSubtargetFeatureName(uint64_t Val) {
  switch(Val) {
  case Feature_HasAVX512: return "AVX-512 ISA";
  case Feature_HasCDI: return "AVX-512 CD ISA";
  case Feature_HasPFI: return "AVX-512 PF ISA";
  case Feature_HasERI: return "AVX-512 ER ISA";
  case Feature_HasDQI: return "AVX-512 DQ ISA";
  case Feature_HasBWI: return "AVX-512 BW ISA";
  case Feature_HasVLX: return "AVX-512 VL ISA";
  case Feature_Not64BitMode: return "Not 64-bit mode";
  case Feature_In64BitMode: return "64-bit mode";
  case Feature_In16BitMode: return "16-bit mode";
  case Feature_Not16BitMode: return "Not 16-bit mode";
  case Feature_In32BitMode: return "32-bit mode";
  default: return "(unknown)";
  }
}
```

I think you can just rewrite the caller loop as something like (I'm not sure I don't have any off-by-ones here):


```
for (unsigned i = 0; i < ErrorInfo.size(); ++i) {
  if (ErrorInfo[i]) {
    Msg += " ";
    Msg += getSubtargetFeatureName(Mask);
  }
}
```

And, yes, changing the name from Val to Feature is probably a good idea.
