Hi Lee,

Thanks for all your comments. Please see my comments below.

The main reason was that LMU MFD core provides consistent register 
access among LMU drivers like ti-lmu-backlight, leds-lm3633, 
lm363x-regulator and ti-lmu-fault-monitor('ti-lmu-hwmon' will be changed 
to this in the 2nd patch).

However, LMU register helpers are exactly same as regmap interface 
except using ti_lmu data structure. So let me replace them with regmap 
functions. Thanks for pointing this out.

Best regards,
Milo
