I think that commit log requires a bit more work.

As far as I can see, you're doing several things here:

You change regmap_update_bits to regmap_write_bits, I assume this is what the
commit log means by "bypassing the cache", so that every write actually gets
done even if the bit is already set.

I'm not quite sure why it's needed though, since that bit is self-clearing.

Ditto.

You seem to be allowing reads to FIFO_TX_REG now for some reason?

I assume that your issue was that the flushed bit got cached since the register
wasn't volatile, and therefore each time we were supposed to flush, we actually
ended up doing nothing. Marking it as volatile would prevent the cache to catch
that write and make regmap_update_bits work, actually fixing what you mention in
the commit log.

Either way, it should be in the log itself, and it doesn't really explain the
rest of the patch either.
