No, really.  There's no place for it.  Think about what it does - it
takes the code that sets up the shared I/O accessors and changes it so
that if the code is explicitly asked to set up regmap accessors it might
just ignore that and not tell anyone.  Clearly this is not a good idea,
this code has a simple job to do and you're making it more fragile and
obscure.

That change is clearly working at the wrong abstraction layer.
