This works too with RT5642. It appeared page select for _regmap_write() 
is actually handled implicitly for certain cases. regmap_init() sets 
"map->reg_write = _regmap_bus_raw_write" in this case and 
_regmap_bus_raw_write() then calls _regmap_raw_write(). I guess that can 
be fixed when doing other cleanups or if some setup hits it.
