I see your point. My concern is that so far we may have platform-data-
configured devices setting flag SERIAL or MAC and not READONLY and we
have no control over such (IMO) misconfigurations.

So my primary question would be whether we agree on SERIAL and MAC
implying READONLY. If yes then I think we should reflect this
relationship in the code.
Instead of silently setting flag READONLY we could also reject such
invalid flag configurations. Or print at least a message/warning
when setting READONLY.
