The key problem with the chip and the generic PMBus driver is reflected by the msleep(2); in your driver. Problem here is that this adds a delay of up to 20ms to each and every I2C read command, which is really not desirable. I found that udelay(500) does the trick as well, but is not much better. I'll need to think about this a bit. Where do you have the 2ms value from ? I don't seem to be able to find it in the datasheet. Also, the ZL6105 does not seem to have the timing problem.
