Better is to add a comment explaining what register is described
below, and not just a blank line.

Yep, note that you may easily retrieve i2c_client from struct device
pointer if you need to do that in some (I believe rare to none) cases.

It doesn't have anything to do with arches, simply compiler
optimization, otherwise yes, that's what I meant.

1 / Hz = 1 sec. That's how physics defines it. Try to figure out what
you meant by above multiplications / divisions and come up with the
best that fits your purposes.

I didn't suggest getting rid of the lock.

The blank line is not needed, I specifically commented on the
emphasized paragraph (by delimiting it with blank lines and leaving
the rest for the better context for you to understand, it seems it did
the opposite...).

As per above.
