[PATCH v5 1/2] mfd: tps65219: Implement LOCK register handling for TPS65214
Posted by Kory Maincent (TI.com) 1 day ago
The TPS65214 PMIC variant has a LOCK_REG register that prevents writes to
nearly all registers when locked. Unlock the registers at probe time and
leave them unlocked permanently.

This approach is justified because:
- Register locking is very uncommon in typical system operation
- No code path is expected to lock the registers during runtime
- Adding a custom regmap write function would add overhead to every
  register write, including voltage changes triggered by CPU OPP
  transitions from the cpufreq governor which could happen quite
  frequently

Changes in v5:
- Add error message.

Changes in v4:
- Move the registers unlock in the probe instead of a custom regmap write
  operation.

Changes in v3:
- Removed unused variable.

Changes in v2:
- Setup a custom regmap_bus only for the TPS65214 instead of checking
  the chip_id every time reg_write is called.
