I wanted to make the masking explicit, but since regmap-mdio currently requires
a register address width of 5 bit, it could move there.

Actually, can we safely assume that any MDIO driver implementing clause-22
access (5-bit register address width) will just ignore higher bits? In that
case, I could just drop these functions and not even modify regmap-mdio. It
appears to work for bitbanged MDIO.

Will fix.
