Recently i use mcp2518fd on 4.x kernel which multiple write is not
backported, regmap_raw_write will cause old kernel crash because the
tx buffer in driver is smaller then 2K. Use regmap_bulk_write instead
for compatibility.

Hmmm, this patch will never be backported to any 4.x kernel, as the driver is
not available on these kernels. You have to carry patches for these kernels
anyway, so I think I'll not take that patch. Sorry. Drop me a note if you are
interested in updating your kernel to a recent v5.11 kernel.

I got it. I have already port it to 4.x kernel. I just want anyone 
working on old kernels to use the driver more easier.

Thanks.
