staging: comedi: s526: replace counter mode bitfield struct
The driver uses `struct counter_mode_register_t` to describe the 16-bit counter mode register as a sequence of bitfield members. The struct appears as the type of one of the members of `union cmReg`, the other member of which is of type `unsigned short`, so the driver can manipulate the register value as a whole, or as individual fields. Although this is fairly convenient, it's not that conventional. The code also needs to define the bitfield members in ascending or descending order of the physical bits, depending on whether bitfields are little- or big-endian. Rip all that out and replace it with a bunch of macros to set and mask out bits of the register value, as that's the more conventional way to do it. A bonus is that we get rid of a load of CamelCase definitions in the process.
