So I'm curious, how do you then use that signal? I have a (not yet sent)
series adding alarm support for the pcf2127. The issue having BLIE is
that then this will prevent the alarm to work properly.
So my guess is that you have nINT connected to an LED or something that
the user can see?

This has to use regmap_update_bits because this also has to work on spi.
(I don't know where you get the client pointer from anyway).
