Subject: [PATCH net-next] ieee802154: use helper function to get rid of redundancy

In some call sites of at86rf230_write_subreg(), they are rather
redundant. Use a helper function to replace those call sites for
efficiency.

With at86rf230_write_subreg_by_page(), now ->rssi_base_val is
assigned before at86rf230_write_subreg() is evaluated. Looking at
at86rf230_write_subreg(), that change could possibly affect

		__at86rf230_read_subreg()
and
		__at86rf230_write()

only or vice versa. Yet by the definition of

		struct at86rf230_local

changing ->rssi_base_val will in no way affect those two functions
above and evaluation of those two has no impact on ->rssi_base_val.
Thus, at86rf230_write_subreg_by_page() itself is safe.

Additionally at86rf230_write_subreg_by_channel() is simple and safe.
