OK. I can change this to whatever names you suggest.
enable_disable_clear_mask seems the least obscure, but rather long. Just
let me know what you want.

As for breaking existing users, I don't think so: The new fields will
presumably be initialized to zero for any drivers that don't explicitly
set them, and the values are simply or'd into the mask/value parameters
to update_bits(), and or'ing a zero will have no effect.
