Why do you say:
"current binding is for a I2C device that
shouldn't be accessed through I2C" ?

As a matter of fact, my debug code queries the device ID using
regmap_read() to make sure I set the correct I2C address.

It's not that the device "SHOULD NOT" be accessed.

It's just that the driver DOES NOT NEED TO access the device,
simply because the default settings work fine.
