ASoC: soc-component: add snd_soc_component_read/write_field()
It's often the case that we would write or read a particular field
in register. With the current soc_component apis, reading a particular
field in register would involve first read the register and then
perform shift operations.
Ex:
to read from a field mask of 0xf0
val = snd_soc_component_read(component, reg);
field = ((val & 0xf0) >> 0x4);
This is sometimes prone to errors and code become less readable!
With this new api we could just do
field = snd_soc_component_read_field(component, reg, 0xf0);
this makes it bit simple, easy to write and less error prone!
This also applies to writing!
There are various places in kernel which provides such field interfaces
however soc_component seems to be missing this.
This patch is inspired by FIELD_GET/FIELD_PREP macros in include/linux/bitfield.h
