In fact you must actually SET the CPR bit to clear the prescaler, confusing!

I was already setting the CPR bit (clearing prescaler), so I modified the confusing comment.

The CPR bit is only present IF the reset register is also present, that is why I simply used the presence of the reset register to take the correct action. This avoids to define a new bit or matching on a device model for that functionality (adding newer models could potentially mean modifying the model match).

But if you absolutely want to match on the model, I would like to know how you would like to practically do it (maybe an example)?

I converted the dev_err messages to dev_dbg.

In the original driver and in the same function, there is also a dev_err to handle regmap_bulk_write() failure. Do you suggest that we also make it less verbose:

err = regmap_bulk_write(pcf2127->regmap, pcf2127->cfg->reg_time_base, buf, i);
 	if (err) {
 		dev_err(dev,

???
