Your patch breaks DA9053 SPI communication (for me, at least) on the
6.1.y branch (I have not tested on master).

The datasheets [1] and [2] both refer to R/Wn in the SPI signalling.

What led to the assertion that "The LSB bit is set on write rather
than read."?

In the original code "config.read_flag_mask = 1;", is OR'd into the
buffer in regmap_set_work_buf_flag_mask.  This sets the "R" bit as
expected.

[1] DA9052 CFR0011-120-00 Rev 5, Revision 2.5, 13-Feb-2017, page 67.
[2] DA9053 DA9053-00-IDS2n_131017, page 54.

Blue skies,
Ian
