I think there are two distinct things here. The actual fix for the
regmap, and a module_platform_driver cleanup. I would suggest having
them in separate patches.

And even if these are combined, I think the patch subject and
description should talk about fixing the regmap bug. Now it's rather
unclear that an actual bug is being fixed.
