OK, get it.
Is the below text enough to express this problem?

Ex. Testing as below (mt6370 register range from 0 to 0x1ff)
   rg_bound_show()
        regmap_raw_read(regmap, 0x200, &val, sizeof(val));

pstate: 60000005 (nZCv daif -PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--)
pc : i2c_smbus_xfer+0x58/0x120
lr : i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data+0x74/0xc0
Call trace:
 i2c_smbus_xfer+0x58/0x120
 i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data+0x74/0xc0
 mt6370_regmap_read+0x40/0x60
 _regmap_raw_read+0xe4/0x278
 regmap_raw_read+0xec/0x240
 rg_bound_show+0xb0/0x120
