I can probably change it: I will reevaluate this.

OK.

Yep.

Ack.

OK. Due to my ignorance I was assuming that the could would need to restore the current configuration during resume, and also the previous versions (that you did not see) of this code was not using regmap. In fact I see that there is also a function called ‘regmap_sync’ which is used (mainly by audio codecs) to do this (i.e.; as part of device reset but there are examples in resume()). The configuration register is now marked volatile so it would be skipped by regmap_sync anyway.

Should we be concerned about restoring the configuration here?

Thanks for your advice,

John.
