Hi.

The fix is good, but please do the same for the i2c element of
the driver. I'd like them both in a single patch as it's exactly
the same issue in the same driver.

Minor comment inline on how I think it could be a tiny bit
nicer.

Thanks,

Jonathan

Split this into the variable instantiation and the assignment.
That will let you (I think) avoid the nasty alignement.
Also, no need to have the devm_ prefix on the variable name.

	struct regmap *regmap;

	regmap = devm_regmap_init(spi, &hmc5843_spi_regmap_config);
