There may be spi devices that do not require a

Currently the code sets the read mask based on
a non-zero value passed in from the driver or if that
value is 0 sets the read mask to 0x80.
It only sets it to the bus default if both read_flag_mask and
write_flag_mask are 0. 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.
Do you have a device where both the read and the write mask is 0?
