Pointer arithmetic on void* is not standard C, it's a GCC extension. I
know that GCC extensions are allowed for the kernel but is it really
encouraged to rely on them this way?

Anyway, are my concerns about the regmap_bus implementation for SPMI
valid? In theory this could be submitted in it's present form and let
regmap+spmi users

If this API is otherwise fine I can just resend this marked as [PATCH]
with the cast removed and some rearranged comments.
