regmap: Add precious registers to the driver interface
Some devices are sensitive to reads on their registers, especially for things like clear on read interrupt status registers. Avoid creating problems with these with things like debugfs by allowing drivers to tell the core about them. If a register is marked as precious then the core will not internally generate any reads of it. Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@opensource.wolfsonmicro.com>
