regmap-irq: Remove mask_writeonly and regmap_irq_update_bits()
Commit a71411dbf6 ("regmap: irq: add chip option mask_writeonly")
introduced the mask_writeonly option, but it isn't used now and it
appears it's never been used by any in-tree drivers. The motivation
for the option is mentioned in the commit message,

    Some irq controllers have writeonly/multipurpose register
    layouts. In those cases we read invalid data back. [...]

The option causes mask register updates to use regmap_write_bits()
instead of regmap_update_bits().

However, regmap_write_bits() doesn't solve the reading invalid data
problem. It's still a read-modify-write op like regmap_update_bits().
The difference is that 'update bits' will only write the new value
if it is different from the current value, while 'write bits' will
write the new value unconditionally, even if it's the same as the
current value.

This seems like a bit of a specialized use case and probably isn't
that useful for regmap-irq, so let's just remove the option and go
back to using an 'update bits' op for the mask registers. We can
always add the option back if some driver ends up needing it in the
future.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
