Opinions vary on whether errors from regmap_write() should be handled.
See the recent thread:

https://lore.kernel.org/r/aXh9lcfw6D6KouI_@stanley.mountain

Seems that if regmap_write() fails, it's "buy a new computer" realms.
If that's case, is it worth cleaning up resources, or even checking the
return code from regmap_write() ?
