I'm not sure about the change in the implementation of
mtk_mmsys_update_bits(). Nicolas tried to explain it to me on IRC but I
wasn't totally convincing. As we have to go for at least another round of
this patches, I'd like to get a clear understanding while it is needed that
val bits are set to 1 in the mask.
The point here was to make sure that mtk_mmsys_update_bits() didn't allow
setting bits outside of the mask, since that's never what you want: the entire
point of having a mask is to specify the bits that should be updated (and the
ones that should be kept unchanged). So for example if you had
mask = 0x0ff0
val = 0x00ff
the previous implementation would happily overwrite the 4 least significant bits
on the destination register, despite them not being present in the mask, which
is wrong.
This wrong behavior could easily lead to hard to trace bugs as soon as a badly
formatted/wrong val is passed and an unrelated bit updated due to the mask being
ignored.
For reference, _regmap_update_bits() does the same masking of the value [1].
That said, given that this function already existed and was just being moved,
it would've been cleaner to make this change in a separate commit.
Would have been better, but we can leave it as it.
