Hi Andy,
these functions are not called under regmap_{read,write} but above. Some 
(non-mailboxed) registers are indexed.

E.g. register ref_freq is defined as 4-bytes for 10 input references:
ref0: address 0x144-0x147
ref1: address 0x148-0x14b
...

So the caller (this mfd driver or dpll driver) will access it as:
zl3073x_read_ref_freq(zldev, idx, &value);

and this helper then computes the addr value according base (0x144) and 
provided index with ref number and then calls regmap_*read().

And the 'if' check is just for a sanity check that the caller does not 
provide wrong index and if so return -EINVAL.
