With the current implementation, the driver will prevent a readout at a
pace faster than the default conversion time (2ms) times the averaging

Any sysfs "show" read access from the client app faster than 500 Hz
will be
500 Hz ?
The current code checks for the elapsed time since the last read. If
this time is less than the default Conversion Time (CT = 2.2ms) times
the averaging setting, then the driver will not actually access the
registers.
Hence the user can at best read fresh values every 2.2 x 1 ms, roughly
500Hz.
Note that since the driver does bulk-read of all 8 registers (on
ina226), it takes about 0.8 x 8 = 6.4 ms to update all/any values on
BeagleBoneBlack, hence a client app cannot read fresh values faster than
160Hz per seconds.
This is the problem that motivates this rework.
'cached' by the driver, but actually since do_update reads all 8
registers,
the best achievable measurement rate is roughly 8*800 us (for the time
spent in i2c-core) i.e. <= 156Hz with Beagle Bone Black.
Registers are now accessed individually through the regmap facility.
For four measurements the readout rate is now around
(1/(4*800us) = 312 Hz.
I'll need some time to go through the patch in detail Some quick
comments below.
ok

bool, please. But then valid was supposed to be used to indicate
if the cache is valid, and should no longer be needed since there
is no more cache. I'll have to spend more time to understand if and
why it is still needed and how it is used.

Please no unnecessary parameter checks. If val is NULL here,
something is wrong with the implementation and needs to get fixed.
Besides, the return value is only negative on errors. There is no need
to pass an extra pointer to the value. Furthermore, regmap_read expects
a pointer to an unsigned int, not a pointer to an int.
Just return an error or the value returned by regmap. The calling code
can determine if there is an error by checking if the returned value
is < 0.

Ah, that is the context of "valid". I don't immediately see why moving
its scope
out of this function, and setting it to false in the calling code, is
beneficial here.
This also changes the dynamic of the driver. Previously it was
specifically able
to detect if the chip was power cycled (for whatever reason) and it
would re-initialize
itself. Now you use 'valid' and you defer (re-)initialization until
chip registers
are read. I don't immediately see if and how this is beneficial.
Agreed, as I said, it "morphed" the use of valid because of my earlier
patch...

If you no longer use the register parameter, there is no need to
provide it.
But then I'll have to spend some time trying to understand _why_ you
don't
use it anymore and why you introduced separate show functions.
Some explanation might help.
The interval value is no longer needed to compute a read "gard" delay,
but the client Application may still need to set a different averaging
value through this interval setting, based on the DUT characteristics.
As of using separate functions, it fits better in the new logic of
"per-register" accesses. It does not bloat the code either.

This changes priority from platform data first to devicetree
configuration first.
As such, it is an unrelated change. If needed, split into a separate
patch, and
Yes I would do a separate patch normaly, agreed.
explain the reasoning, please.
Changing the platform data requires changes in the kernel code, and
hence recompilation. It seems a bit unexpected that setting a new value
in the dtb will be ignored because there is a compiled-in platform data.
Should'nt the dtb allow to override platform data ?
