From 18694886bddb2d4d905535a0149aeef3b5f9c936 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Brown Date: Mon, 8 Aug 2011 15:40:22 +0900 Subject: regmap: Add precious registers to the driver interface Some devices are sensitive to reads on their registers, especially for things like clear on read interrupt status registers. Avoid creating problems with these with things like debugfs by allowing drivers to tell the core about them. If a register is marked as precious then the core will not internally generate any reads of it.
