No drivers currently use mask_writeonly, and in its current form
it seems a bit misleading. When set, mask registers will be
updated with regmap_write_bits() instead of regmap_update_bits(),
but regmap_write_bits() still does a read-modify-write under the
hood. It's not a write-only operation.
Performing a simple regmap_write() is probably more useful, since
it can be used for chips that have separate set & clear registers
for controlling mask bits. Such registers are normally volatile
and read as 0, so avoiding a register read minimizes bus traffic.
