After checking, the following ranges are invalid for codec drivers:

for address < 0x1000
LSB = 0x00 - 0xBF standard or reserved

0x1800 – 0x1FFF reserved
0x48000000 - 0xFFFFFFFF reserved

is the recommendation to check the regmap_config and its 'yes_ranges'?

Presumably if the range_min or range_max is within the invalid values
above then the configuration can be tagged as problematic in the dmesg
log or rejected with an error code?
