Why is the necessary? I can't see an obvious sign that these writes bypass the cache in the non-regmap version, am I missing something? Also if this is necessary I would quite like it to be accompanied by a comment in the code to explain why it is safe to do this here. Regarding the inherent dangers of cache bypass I explained in my last email.
It's probably worth pointing out that the functionality in the regmap API is essentially the same as the functionality in the old ASoC cache code, a conversion should pretty much be a case of directly translating API calls.
