[PATCH RFC 2/2] regmap: implement no-sequential-read firmware property

[Richard Leitner]

Some devices are integrated in hardware modules where incrementing
multi-register reads are not reliable, even though the underlying chip
normally supports them.

regmap already owns a configuration that selects between bulk reads and
single-register reads. Letting regmap consume this firmware property
makes use of this configuration and therefore keeps the override in the
actual layer of implementation.

If the property is absent, existing behaviour is unchanged.
