Using local caching in this driver had few benefits. It used cached values for two seconds and then re-read all registers from the chip even if the user only accessed a single attribute. On top of that, alarm attributes were stale for up to four seconds (the first status register read reports and clears an alarm, the second reports it cleared). Use regmap instead for caching. Do not re-read non-volatile registers, and do not cache volatile registers. As part of this change, handle register read and write address differences in regmap code. This is necessary to avoid problems with caching in the regmap core, and ultimately simplifies the code. Also, errors observed when reading from and writing to registers are no longer ignored.
