From: Srinivas Kandagatla <srinivas.kandagatla@st.com>
This patch series introduces BITS_MASK macro which creates a mask for a given lsb and msb bit locations. The usage of masks spread over mutiple bits is becoming very common for example with regmap_update_bits kind of apis. Having a common macro for this makes much sense and is clean and readable way to encode the mask rather than having an hex number for a mask.
Second patch is to show an example usage of this new macro in regmap.
Comments ?
Thanks, srini
