I thought this odd as well, but if I do not have a .max_register defined 
that is >= a register in the patch function, it will fail at that 
register. It does make sense that we should not have to define or mention 
chicken bits for this stuff.

Could it be related to this?

int regmap_register_patch(struct regmap *map, const struct reg_default 
*regs, int num_regs)
{
...

/* Write out first; it's useful to apply even if we fail later. */
 	for (i = 0; i < num_regs; i++) {
 		ret = _regmap_write(map, regs[i].reg, regs[i].def);
 		if (ret != 0) {
 			dev_err(map->dev, "Failed to write %x = %x: %d\n",
 				regs[i].reg, regs[i].def, ret);
 			goto out;
 		}
 	}

But it does not seem to apply later.
I believe that if I call regcache_cache_bypass it might work.
