You mean reading the register returns 0xffffffff, correct?

mask = 0x48000

val = 0x40000

val = 0x40000, tmp = 0xff7fffff

You are right, in both cases the bit is set, but the funciton does not do what 
it is supposed to do.

With you fix:
With the mask we define bits that
a) are set to zero if not present in val
b) set to one, when part of val, independent of what the value was in the 
register read.

mtk_cec_mask(cec, CEC_CKGEN, 0 | CEC_32K_PDN, PDN | CEC_32K_PDN);


Will set CEC_32K_PDN to one and clear PDN in the register.

mtk_cec_mask(cec, RX_GEN_WD, 0, HDMI_PORD_INT_32K_CLR | RX_INT_32K_CLR |
  HDMI_HTPLG_INT_32K_CLR | HDMI_PORD_INT_32K_EN |
  RX_INT_32K_EN | HDMI_HTPLG_INT_32K_EN);

Will just clear all bits of the mask.

Without your patch, we will just write the val to the register and don't care 
what the register value was before that.

We should somehow mention that in the commit message, as it's not only about a 
not used variable, it actually has an influence on the value we write(-back) to 
the register.
