Why do we have to allocate all regmap fields separately instead of
embedding them into keypad structure?

No particular reason. Will rework it.

Oops. struct regmap_field is opaque. It seems that the allocation
is the only way that I could have instance of it.

Maybe we can add an API to allocate an array of fields?

Maybe we could make the structure public instead? I do not see any
reason for allocating something separately that has exactly the same
lifetime as owning structure.

Srini/Mark, any reason why the regmap_field structure is opaque?
