I don't see benefits in using regmap for different lanes.
Do you see benefits in replacing a bunch of readl()/writel() with
regmap_read()/regmap_update_bits()/regmap_write() ?

I can as well use separate 'reg' values for each lanes, and have the offsets
come from dt. Something like below :

 - reg: array of offset and length of the PHY register sets.
       at index 0: offset and length of register set for PHY common
                   serdes block.
       from index 1 - N: offset and length of register set for each lane,
                         for N number of phy lanes (ports).
 - lane-offsets: array of offsets to tx, rx and pcs blocks for phy lanes.

Example:
       pcie_phy: pciephy@34000 {
               compatible = "qcom,msm8996-qmp-pcie-phy";
               reg = <0x034000 0x48f>,
                       <0x035000 5bf>,
                       <0x036000 5bf>,
                       <0x037000 5bf>;
                                       /* tx, rx, pcs */
               lane-offsets = <0x0 0x200 0x400>;


Does this look OK ? Or should i use regmap only ?


Thanks
Vivek
