This needs to select REGMAP_I2C not depend on it.  REGMAP_I2C will only
be enabled by being selected.

I'd suggest making these static inlines in the header given that they're
so trivial.

Indentation is weird here.  For the cache we should have at least
.max_register defined and given the functionality there must surely be
some volatile registers (I'm surprised this works at all as it is, the
cache should break things).

This is all unconditional, there should be a dependency on this in
Kconfig.

I'd make these log messages dev_info() or something.

Use devm_kzalloc() for this.

This should probably list the part name rather than "smsc" - that seems
far too generic a name to use, obviously smsc produce more than one
part!
