Therefore this patch removes regmap part of the driver.NAK. Using regmap is better than open coding your register accesses, and the children not using this API is not a reason for the MFD driver to do the same.
There is no advantage over using regmap in the first place. It goes through a few layers, uses no caching because almost all registers are volatile and this is a direct bus. In the end it complicates more than it helps.
Cheers, Samuel.
