Aside from the build warnings the bots reported it's not clear to
me that it's better to do this than it is to just have these
drivers implement appropriate ops directly - there's probably
going to be cases when it's a different bitfield in the same
register, and by the time you've implemented the op so things
aren't completely data driven I'm not sure how much you win by
reusing the register read/write.
