Yes, i know what you mean. However it doesn't need max77686_update_reg()
any more since it uses regmap API. Why don't you just pass iodev->regmap
to regmap_update_bits(). It is clear that there is no reason for using
i2c client as a medium. Please check regulator and mfd driver of my
previous patch.


Thanks.
