[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 without any warnings of it being incorrect.
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.

I think it would be better to return an error and check it in the caller, with a log_debug() here. We don't want to increase code size for a programming error, particularly in SPL.
