On IPQ platforms, to collect the crashdump, we need to just modify the
DLOAD bit in the TCSR register. Current infrastructure, overwrites the
entire regiter value when enabling the crashdump feature, which leads to
crashdump not gets collected. This series introduce the
qcom_scm_io_update_field API to achieve the same.

Intially this approach is posted by Poovendhan[1], later Mukesh
integrated this patch in his minidump support series[2]. Based on the
current feedback on the minidump series, seems it will take sometime to
get into a good shape, in the meantime these patches doesn't have any
dependency with the minidump series. As discussed with the Mukesh[3],
posting these 3 patches to enable the crashdump on IPQ chipsets.

Since the current version of minidump series is V4, I'm posting this as
a V5. Please let me know if this should be V1.

$subject is messed up, it should be "Introduce the read-modify-write API 
to collect the crashdump on IPQ chipsets". Will correct it in next spin 
or let me know if I need to respin.

I don't think you describe patch 2 in the subject line or cover letter. 
As best I can tell, Patches 2 and 3 are independent. They're similar 
only in that they both depend on patch 1.

Yeah. I missed that part. I'm thinking of dropping the 2nd patch and 
send only the patch 1 and patch 3 in the next spin. Once the patch 1 and 
the another pinctrl patch which Bjorn's is referring [1] (Hopefully, If 
I am not wrong) is landed in linux-next, I can send out the patch 2 
separately. Do let me know if this okay.
