Description
Recently we have fixed a few issues to due putting csr write exclusion to a field.
Here are two solutions:
1). Return an error once we found a write exclusion is applied to the field.
2). Support csr write field exclusion -
since there is no partial write, supporting this feature can be tricky. I was thinking to just write default/reset value when this field is excluded from write, but it might have some side effect.
Please let me know what you think.
