Trivial if it's on a supported bus, otherwise you just need to write the
bus. But why do you care if dev_get_regmap() fails? We only try to use
regmap if the driver asked for regmap I/O (or doesn't have registers at
all in which case it doesn't matter since we never do any I/O). What
you appear to be saying here is that you're using regmap on a device
which doesn't have a regmap set up which is clearly never going to work
terribly well...
