Previously, the probe function might do up to 32 reads and writes
to the same 4 registers to program the led selection. Reduce this to
a maximum of 8 operations by accumulating the changes to the led
selection and comparing with the previous value to write the
selection if different.

We have regmap APIs. You are free to use them if you really care about
those few reads. Reimplementing them by hand is not acceptable. How big is 
the seedup here?

Best regards,

Hi,

To be honest this was not about speed, it's about a problem I've 
observed where many operations in quick succession caused the PCA chip 
to NAK the i2c transfer. I'm not sure of the root cause yet. So reducing 
the number of operations helped. We are also probably going to carry a 
throttling patch, unless I can prove the PCA chip itself is at fault and 
needs slower transfers.

I can try the regmap API and see if it helps though.

Thanks,

Eddie
