Create and utilize bulk regmap reads instead of single access for gathering
stats. The background reading of statistics happens frequently, and over
a few contiguous memory regions.

High speed PCIe buses and MMIO access will probably see negligible
performance increase. Lower speed buses like SPI and I2C could see
significant performance increase, since the bus configuration and register
access times account for a large percentage of data transfer time.
