Not really sure if 'necessary' is the right term, it is just convenient.
Regmap takes care of register caching, for example, so you would not have to
re-read register values again and again from the chip just to modify a bit
of a register.
You can pass the regmap pointer in the platform data, or you can pass the
pointer to the i2c client. Using regmap makes the client driver independent
of the i2c subsystem. The one thing you can _not_ do is to declare the client
drivers to be i2c drivers.
