Can it be rewritten to be less complicated? I hate it when I have to
look at code for several seconds and still not understand what it's
doing. Why not something that is closer to the pseudo code you gave:

	bool enabled = (val & pll->params->sdm_ctrl_en_mask) != 0;

	if ((enabled && cfg->sdm_data == 0) || (!enabled && cfg->sdm_data != 0))

? Also I think this could use some could comments explaining what's
going on. Perhaps this could be simplified even further:

	if (cfg->sdm_data == 0 && enabled)
		val &= ~pll->params->sdm_ctrl_en_mask;

	if (cfg->sdm_data != 0 && !enabled)
		val |= pll->params->sdm_ctrl_en_mask;

	pll_writel_sdm_ctrl(val, pll);

Now that I have a /much/ easier time reading and understanding. That may
not even require comments because it's pretty plain what's going on. But
there may be some advantage in adding comments about SDM in general. The
comment could be something like what you have in the commit message, so
that people don't have to go find the commit that added the code to find
out what this is doing.
