Yes, I agree :-(

No, implementing stuff like this in individual device drivers rather defeats the point of having frameworks. It sounds like it should be trivial to add support for this to regmap.
I also think that there should be a way to handle this kind of stuff by the framework. May I know if you have any plan to add this to regmap? or should I come up with a patch to extend regmap to support this and propose you?

I have no need for it so I'm unlikely to work on it myself, if you were to send a patch that'd be great.

OK, I will go through regmap sources in detail to find out appropriate place to put this. BTW do you have any recommendation in terms of a good way to achieve this. e.g. will it be useful and generic enough if we introduce two more fields like read/write_flag_mask to indicate shifting and use those fields before applying read/write_flag_masks?

That sounds like a sensible approach.
