Subject: [PATCH 1/3] hwmon: pmbus: Reduce clear fault page invocations

From: Patrick Rudolph <patrick.rudolph@...ements.com>

Observing I2C traffic revealed consecutive transmission of CLEAR_FAULT
commands. While this doesn't cause issues, it extends driver probe time.

Avoid invoking pmbus_clear_fault_page for virtual registers, as they're
managed by the driver, not the chip.

TEST: Verified using an I2C bus analyzer that only one CLEAR_FAULT
      command is send instead 5 in a row.
