Why?

Its seems that the switch to regmap APIs is not very necessary,
as ioremap/writel/readl are simple enough and easier to use.

Isn't that this just introduce an intermediate layer? It's okay
for display bridges/panels that behind I2C bus or SPI bus. But
then, why drm/msm still haven't be converted to use the regmap
APIs ?

Just a few questions, has no opinions to your patch.
