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.
