Extend the interface for async I/O by allowing the value buffer to be
omitted and sending the value as part of the register buffer, minimising
the number of separate hardware operations required.

New API regmap_multi_reg_write() is defined that allows a set of reg,val
pairs to be written to a I2C client device as one block transfer from the
point of view of a single I2C master system.

A simple demonstration implementation is included that just splits the
block write request into a sequence of single register writes.

The implementation will be modified later to support those I2C clients
that implement the alternative non-standard MULTIWRITE block write mode
so to achieve a single I2C transfer that will be atomic even in multiple
I2C master systems.

Try to speed up patch application a little using async I/O.

When regmap_bulk_write() is called with the map->use_single_rw flag set
an immediate mutex deadlock happens because regmap_raw_write() is called
after obtaining the mutex and regmap_raw_write() itself then tries to
obtain the mutex as well.

It is obvious that no one other than myself tried it with a real device.
I did, but only for the purposes of an experiment and demonstration.

But even if this situation will never ever happen with a real device, it
is a bug and therefore should be fixed.

Make it easier for drivers to include single register writes in
asynchronous sequences by providing async versions of the write
and update bits operations. The update bits operations are only
likely to be effective when used with devices that have caches
but this is common enough to be useful.

Rather than passing a flag around through the entire call stack store it
in the regmap struct and read it when required. This minimises the
visibility of the feature through the API, minimising the code updates
needed to use it more widely.

Since it is quite common for single register raw or async writes to be
generated by rbtree cache syncs or firmware downloads and essentially all
hardware will be faster with only a single transfer optimise this case by
copying single values into the internal scratch buffer before sending.
