Yes, but not only don't care but really don't want to do rmw. We have 
two separate paths in the apply side which is picked based on clr being 
zero or not.

Yep thanks.

Yes I wasn't fully happy with it.

How about both wa_add and wa_masked_add get a single or double 
underscore prefix? That would signify them being low-level and justify 
the need for explicitly using _MASKED_BIT_ENABLE?
