In this case I do. If we were dealing with more 16-bit registers in this
driver I would agree with you. This being said, I'd like to get this
driver merged, and I'll burn some of the mental energy I've recovered
thanks to the last two weeks of holidays and submit a v5 using the bulk
API. It's getting mentally exhausting though.

Overall, I think it would be nice to improve support for variable-length
register maps, in a similar way as done in include/media/v4l2-cci.h.
This driver, as well as many other drivers, could really benefit from
it. Mark, do you have an opinion, is v4l2-cci something that we could
fold in regmap itself ?
