[RFC PATCH 1/1] regmap: verify if register is writeable before writing operations

[Han Nandor]

regmap provides a couple of ways to validate the register range used.
a) maxim allowed register, b) writable/readable register tables,
c) callback function that can be provided by the driver to validate
a register. regmap framework should verify if registers
are writeable before every write operation. However this doesn't
seems to happen in every situation.

The method `_regmap_raw_write_impl` is only using the `writeable_reg`
callback to verify if register is writeable, ignoring the other two.
This can lead to undefined behaviour since this allows to write to
registers that could be declared un-writeable by using any other
option.

Change `_regmap_raw_write_impl` to use the `regmap_writeable` method
to verify if registers are writable before the write operation.
