This performance hack probably deserve some explanation in the code comment. :) > is probably something that should be handled by regmap_writable. The address wrapping is specific to this RTC chip. Is it also commonly used by other I2C devices? I'm not sure if regmap_writable should handle the wrapping case if it is too special. Regards, Leo
