These look almost the same as dm_i2c_reg_read/write(), but IMO those
are easier to use since they don't require a pointer to be passed. How
do you intend to use these two new functions?

Simon,

I see a kind of issue in the current implementation of
int dm_i2c_reg_read(struct udevice *dev, uint offset)
int dm_i2c_reg_write(struct udevice *dev, uint offset, uint value)

In the current set up my need is to read and then write a 1 byte I2C register. It is best to have consistency with read and write. In the current case(dm_i2c_reg_read/write) i read an integer and now when i want to write i need to convert it to an unsigned integer.

Instead of all this i made a patch which keeps u8 across read and write:

int dm_i2c_reg_read(struct udevice *dev, uint offset, u8 *val)
returns error/success with the return value and value is passed by reference in val variable.

int dm_i2c_reg_write(struct udevice *dev, uint offset, u8 *val)
returns error/success using the return value and the value to be written is sent in val.

Regards,
Keerthy
