Usage of regmap_field_alloc becomes much overhead when number of fields
exceed more than 3.
QCOM LPASS driver has extensively converted to use regmap_fields.

Using new bulk api to allocate fields makes it much more cleaner code to read!

You only have a patch that uses these last two functions, so why add all
4?  We don't add infrastructure to the kernel without users.

thanks,

We have managed versions of the other regmap allocation functions, it
makes sense for consistency to have managed versions of these too.  I
think there's a meaningful difference between a simple and expected
wrapper like these and infrastructure which hasn't been proved out by
users.

Please delete unneeded context from mails when replying.  Doing this
makes it much easier to find your reply in the message, helping ensure
it won't be missed by people scrolling through the irrelevant quoted
material.

Ok, do you think these are really needed?

A review would be nice :)

I applied this patch the other day - ea470b82f205fc in -next.

Great, sorry for the noise.
