Srinivas Kandagatla 1da0b9899a 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
