Yes, it is one line.

Initially that was the plan, but after this patch:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/4191f19792bf91267835eb090d970e9cd6277a65
the custom write formats for regmap allow the read only via cached registers.

Therefore, I preferred using spi transfers for write/read to/from the device.

Yes. It will serve as LO input to the device.
