The set seems the same as replace, just without any other bitfields to
preserve. You could just use replace and pass in 0 as the reg_val.

OK. Maybe the existing bitfield_replace() should be updated to also
mask off the bitfield_val.

I'm not sure what criteria you intend to check for here, so I'm not
sure if that is appropriate.

Which path do you plan to take?
