Subject: Applied "regmap: Add better support for devices without readback support" to the regmap tree

The patch

   regmap: Add better support for devices without readback support

has been applied to the regmap tree at

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regmap.git 

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

Subject: [PATCH] regmap: Add better support for devices without readback
 support

Currently regmap requires that a reg_read callback is supplied, otherwise a
warning is emitted each time regmap_read() is called. This means a device
or bus without readback support needs to supply dummy reg_read callback.
Apart from that regmap_read() will still work fine if a cache is used.

Remove the warning and let regmap_readable() return false if not reg_read
callback is supplied. This means a device no longer has to supply a dummy
callback if it does not support readback and it also doesn't have to have a
readable_reg callback that always returns false since this is now implicit.
