I had this following question from Alan Cox on the original code without these 
wrappers.

"What is the model for insuring that no interrupt or thread of a driver is not 
in parallel issuing a tps68470_ operation when the device goes away (eg if I 
down the i2c controller) ?"

To address the above concerns, I got extra cautious and implemented locks 
around the regmap_* calls.
Now, I have been asked from more than one reviewer about the necessity of the 
same.
With the use of devm_* calls, tps68470_remove() goes away and leaves the driver 
just with regmap_* calls.
Unless I hear from Alan or other reviewers otherwise, I will drop these 
wrappers around regmap_* calls.

Same as explained above (to address Alan's comments)

Ack
I am looking into this and will get back with v2.
