You've not explained what something would need this for and how
it's expected to work - we don't provide unlocked access to the
regmap to client drivers so I don't see how one could safely use
this.  It's unclear to me what this would mean or why it's not
better implemented in the client driver.

Thanks a lot for the review, Mark.
As per my comment in the other email, this code will be removed in my next version.

Thanks,
