I think the original thinking was to support thinks like appending crc to the
register read/write. But even in that case, u32 for val might be enough. Not
sure. Anyways, as you often say with the backend stuff, this is all in the
kernel so I guess we can change it to unsigned int and change it in the future
if we need to.

Since you mentioned regmap, I also want to bring something that was discussed
before the RFC. Basically we talked about having the backend registering it's
own regmap_bus. Then we would either:

1) Have a specific get_regmap_bus() callback for the frontend to initialize a
regmap on;
2) Pass this bus into the core and have a new frontend API like
devm_iio_backend_regmap_init().

Then, on top of the API already provided by regmap (like _update_bit()), the
frontend could just use regmap independent of having a backend or not.

The current API is likely more generic but tbh (and David and Angelo are aware
of it) my preferred approach it to use the regmap_bus stuff. I just don't feel
that strong about it :)

I'm not sure the instruction is really relevant for this. From a quick look, it
feels like something used for accessing external flash memory like spi-nors. So,
I would not be surprised if things are just like Jonathan said and this is just
flexible as spi (being that extra instruction field a protocol defined for flash
memory - where one typically sees this interface)
