Why exactly do we need a new API for that? All you'r doing is adding just more bits to the mask, right?

I am adding mask for a register with w1c(write 1 to clear) bits set. So while setting/resetting any other bit in this register, these bits(w1c bits) should not get set so as to prevent them from clearing. For this purpose a new API is needed. This API can be used for any fsl registers that have any number of w1c bit(s). All one needs is to define mask for that register with w1c bits set.

You do not need a new API. We have clrsetbits_*(), which can do exactly what you need.
