It'd be good to provide a way of retrieving the regmap so that drivers
for subsystems with generic regmap code could use the framework features
(regulator is one example that I just mentioned in my other mail).

Do you mean something like:
regmap = syscon_regmap_dev_lookup(np, "fsl,anatop");
regmap_write(regmap, reg, val);

Then drivers can use generic regmap framework features rather than depend
on what imx-syscon implemented, is that correct?

Yes, this is mainly for cases where the subsystem has helper functions
that can work with regmap.
