Treating an enum as a bitmask is a bit weird to me. I'd say either have
a bitmask with BIT(enum values), or no enum at all.

Do we really want to have to variants with the same discriminant? If so,
we should document why it's something we want.

Same thing.

Or is it that you encode both the direction and access type, and have a
mask to isolate each?

If so, we should really move it out from an enum into defines, or treat each
separately like dma_sync_does.
