I've seen your answer in v2, but I'm still not convinced about
two things:

1. why are you using bulk APIs with count=1 instead of just
regmap_write/read?
2. do we expect the accesses to ever fail (realistically), if not
we don't have to care about the retval and skip the conditional
error message (1-2 cycles less per invocation)

You insisted on keeping the error messages, but firstly you'll soon
get an angry response from Krzysztof saying register accesses can't
fail (hence making checking the retval useless) and secondly I think
spmi core already spits out some errors on disallowed r/w

If you agree access failures are very edge cases, you can simply
convert all r/w ops to regmap_read/write/modify_bits and pass
pbs->base + reg

Since the SCRATCH2_ERROR path exits the loop, this can simply be
made into:

regmap_read_poll_timeout

if (SCARTCH2_ERROR)
do something
return einval

return etimedout

Probably deserves an error message?

continue

would save you a level of indentation
