[RFC PATCH v2 0/4] hwmon: (jc42) regmap conversion and resume fix

From: Martin Blumenstingl

Hello,

this is a follow-up to the comments I got from Guenter on v1 of my patch
from [0] titled:
"hwmon: (jc42) Restore the min/max/critical temperatures on resume"
There Guenter suggested: "The best solution would probably be to convert
the driver to use regmap and let regmap handle the caching". That's the
goal of this series - in addition to fixing the original resume issue
(see patch #3 - which was the reason for v1 of this series).

Changes since v1 at [0]:
- marked as RFC
- added patches for regmap (patch #1) and regcache (patch #2) conversion
- patch #3 has been updated to use regcache for restoring the register
values during system resume (this was originally patch 1/1)
- added another patch to remove caching of the temperature register
