Subject: [PATCH] regmap: add WARN_ONCE when invalid mask is provided to regmap_field_init()

In regmap_field_init() when a invalid mask is provided it still
initializes with any warnings.

An example of this is when the LSB is greater than MSB a mask of zero
is produced.

WARN_ONCE() is not ideal for this but requires less changes to core regmap
code.
