Why would a secure read of this register would fail, if one is allowed 
to do secure write ?

Honestly, i was not understanding the purpose of this bitwise handling
of this patch, i thought it is trying to fix existing issue for
some target.

For some of the upstream target(e.g sm8450, i verified it myself), it is 
not an issue.

arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/msm8916.dtsi:                  qcom,dload-mode 
= <&tcsr 0x6100>;
arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/msm8976.dtsi:                  qcom,dload-mode 
= <&tcsr 0x6100>;
arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/msm8996.dtsi:                  qcom,dload-mode 
= <&tcsr_2 0x13000>;
arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/sm8450.dtsi:                   qcom,dload-mode 
= <&tcsr 0x13000>;


However, it looks valid to handle only the effective bits. I have worked 
on top of this patch and tested it and posted here.

Do you have any example of any upstream target where this would fail ?
