SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/2] Add support for OneWire (W1) devices family 0x26 (MAX17211/MAX17215)

Hi,

I think regmap be overkill for this driver. Here we need access to a
small number of registers. Registers are extremely simple on the
internal device. As a result, the software layer of regmap will only
complicate the readability and understanding of the code. And also
increase the size and time of code execution, and even complicate the
perception.

No problems. Once this set of patches will be accepted in the mainline.
