Can we drop this helper and instead modify the
i3c_bus_set_addr_slot_status() prototype to get the mask from its
parameters?

Can we remove the whole "( ... )" sentence, and replace it with:

"... property, lower addresses having higher IBI priority."

if it is available.

preferably return

If the previous step fails, fallback returning one of the remaining
unassigned address, regardless of its state in the desired list.

Please update your commit message as well with these changes.

So here it could look like:

status = ...get_addr_slot_status(bus, addr, <extended>)

The naming could be improved, because "extended" does not mean much. I
believe we should express the fact that this is a desired addressed, so
what about:

I3C_ADDR_SLOT_I3C_ASSIGNED/DESIRED
