This matches with my understanding of max_register in regmap.
But what I have noticed is that we have two drivers for the same subset
of the chips. Why? Also one may note the differences in max_register.

Taking that into account with the fact that most likely there is nothing wrong
to access that register (in the other driver they allow up to 13), I think you
can rather add a 0x07 register to the ADC driver and change the value of
_MAX_REGISTERS to be equal to 0x07 as done in hwmon driver.

Right, see above.
