Thanks for review, see my answers below.
Non-answered items will be fixed accordingly.

None of them fits this or MFD driver. See below.

It selects REGMAP_IRQ which selects necessary bits from regmap API.

Merrifield is a correct one. Thanks for spotting this.

It makes a little sense here, the idea is to reduce parameters.

I could ideally write
(..., mask, ~mask) for clear
and
(..., mask, mask) for set

It will bring duplication of long definitions and reduce readability of the
code.

I'm not sure of the consequences of such change.
I will give it some tests, and then will proceed accordingly.

In the Makefile.
Nothing is missed here.

But I could put its content explicitly here.
