The patch doesn't apply. After manually applying this it
threw a compilation error:

drivers/base/regmap/regmap.c: In function ‘regmap_register_patch’:
drivers/base/regmap/regmap.c:2176:6: error: expected expression before ‘)’ token


Cai,
You have missed the second parameter of WARN_ONCE().
Please append what you'd prefer to have outputten once the condition evaluates to true.
