That doesn't mean the chip hasn't decided not to use half the addresses for some reason - this isn't something the bus should be enforcing.
Good point. The contiguous requirement is valid only for normative registers, where the device has no choice but to follow the standard. For the imp-def part where regmap would typically be used, then indeed there is no restriction, chip implementers can do whatever they want. I have a vague memory that regmap was only intended to be used for this latter case, but Vinod and team should clarify this.
Right now it is used by codec for imp-def area. We do plan to add for all registers eventually
Thanks
