Please help me to understand what the desired behavior of the driver is.

Currently syscon creates one regmap for everything and passes this regmap
to the individual syscon users.
These users have to know what offset within the regmap is their playground.
If I understand correctly, it would be better if every syscon user would register their own regmap?

Lee, Arnd, what do you think?
