Yes.. This is correct. I am clearing x number of bit and then set new value.

Yes.. The above code does just that. In addition, I am also setting
the bits CFG_IND_WR_CMD_MASK and CFG_IND_CMD_DONE_MASK with the two
previous statement. Think of the code flow as follow:

val = readl(some void * address); /* read the register */
val = XXXX_SET(val, 0x1);            /* set bit 0  - assuming XXXX set
bit 0 only */
val = YYYY_SET(val, 0x1);          /* set bit 1 - assuming YYYY set
bit 1 only */
val = ZZZZ_SET(val, 0x5);            /* set upper 16 bit of the
register to 0x5 - assuming ZZZZ set field of the upper 16 bits */

Instead writing the above, I am replacing the above 4 lines with these
two lines:

cmd = CFG_IND_WR_CMD_MASK | CFG_IND_CMD_DONE_MASK;
cmd = CFG_IND_ADDR_SET(cmd, addr);

Is there clear?
