I see you are using REGCACHE_FLAT ...

... and initialize the cache defaults from hardware.

This series predates the addition of REGCACHE_FLAT_S in v6.19 with commit
9c7f7262bc1a ("regmap: add flat cache with sparse validity"), but I think
switching to the sparse flat cache would allow you to drop this. Then the cache
will just be initialized on the first hardware access instead of at regmap init.


Best,
Sander
