The assumption is that both of them being zero is a invalid configuration and either of them (or both) have to be non-zero for proper operation, since otherwise the device can't tell the difference between a read and a write.

Yes I do have a device that the read/write mask are both 0.

The device, which is already in production, has a specific control register that sets either the reading or writing of the rest of the registers.

Here is the data sheet

See page 61 control0.

Driver is written for this part just want to get this lead patch in or maybe an alternate solution.
