Will do.

No, because it would become a big mess and really obstruct readability
in my opinion.

So I chose some kind of middleground:
I decided to check the first regmap_read and regmap_write in probe and
return the error code if something goes wrong there.
If something goes wrong after probe, I only print an error message.

Is that acceptable?

Thanks,
Clemens
