There's clearly been some confusion in a bunch of drivers, those you've
identified below need fixing too for the new code from the looks of it.  
I'm frankly unclear why some of the drivers you're pointing at are even
implementing raw buses.

That's "regmap: Account for register length when chunking".  It's
certainly a bit unclear now I go do another survey, though it's also
clear that things like the handling of padding are intermittent at best.
We probably would be safe reverting that.

Jim, where were you seeing the issue here?

Please include human readable descriptions of things like commits and
issues being discussed in e-mail in your mails, this makes them much
easier for humans to read especially when they have no internet access.
I do frequently catch up on my mail on flights or while otherwise
travelling so this is even more pressing for me than just being about
making things a bit easier to read.
