Curious.
Isn't the (read/write)_flag_mask, set in the regmap_config, a property of
the device connected to the regmap_bus?
I would have expected this to have been applied prior to passing to a
regmap_bus call, surely the bus should only be concerned with transport?

It will work in our case as our current hardware uses 1 in bit 7 but it
will not if we ever see other radios with different masks.

If the regmap_bus provider does need to apply the mask, can we get the
end device regmap_config and apply it from there?
Mark what are your thoughts on the route to take?
